Podcasts on old iPad

Help please with an old, rarely used, iPad (Model MB292LL, without a camera) re podcasts..

The Podcast icon on the display carries the number “299." What does that mean, that I have stored 299 episodes? Have I unknowingly been automatically recording podcast updates?

Where are these podcasts stored, on the iPad or on a server somewhere?

Thanks. ...wdc
