Is it possible to make a podcast RSS feed that won’t download a podcast until a specific date or time?

A reader asked..
I’ve gotten a request to make something like this, although I’m not sure if it can be done. I’m using Podcast Generator to automatically create the RSS feed whenever an mp3 file is uploaded.

For example, maybe the client wants to create the podcast RSS on Friday because he won’t be around on Saturday. But, he doesn’t want that podcast to be released or downloaded by listeners until Saturday.

Yes, you can use FutureRSS a PHP script which essentially only displays items which dates have passed.
