www.LearnFrenchWithAlexa.com

This is one of the best sites to learn French via podcasts, in my opinion. You can learn basic French with 15 free 35 minute French podcasts (MP3's).

New words are taught, as well as the grammar surrounding them. The lessons are easy to follow and consist of the text of the lesson as well as the audio so that you can hear the spoken language. 

You get 15 free lessons, which cover all the basics in detail. If you buy a subscription for $99 a year, you get access to a lot more lessons - up to 30 in the Learning French series, plus many dictation lessons, grammar lessons, lessons about French slang, etc. 

Definitely one of the best places to learn French, in my opinion.
