BBC tend to use the term 'podcast' for anything you can list to online.
But:
A podcast is a program made available in digital format for download
over the Internet. For example, an episodic series of digital audio
files that users can download to a personal device to listen to at a
time of their choosing.
I have been listening to Assume Nothing: The Last Request this week but
missed a few bits so thought I would download but not found where I can
download it yet.

I’m not sure I fully understand your question, but if you have the BBC
Sounds app you can download the programme to your device or stream it
directly online. They tend to delay making downloads via other podcast
platforms by a week or two.
Not all sound programmes can be downloaded as MP3s and saved to your
device. And, if you can, it's often not easy to find the link that does >enable you to do this, or subscribe to the podcast with a third party >podcatcher.
From the above URL, if you click on one of the episodes to get a URL
like
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001bchd, I'm pretty sure yt-dlp
will download it. (By default, as a video; you can extract the audio
with one of many audio extractors - I use Pazera, as it has a clear
option to extract original without further transcoding. But if you're
willing to delve into yt-dlp's intricacies, I'm sure you can download
audio only. [It will involve the -F and -f options - one lists the
available formats, the other lets you choose one.])
