There are over 85 iTunes stores for different countries, all in that country's native language. Unfortunately, you can only make purchases in the iTunes store of the country where your credit card is issued.
However, since podcasts are free, you can go to any of the iTunes Stores, browse the podcasts and subscribe to them just like you would in your home iTunes store.
At the bottom right of every iTunes Store page there is a small, round icon of your country's flag. Click that flag icon and iTunes will load a page showing flag icons for every different iTunes Store. Select the flag icon of the country's Store you want to see and iTunes will load it.
You can now search for and subscribe to any of that Store's podcasts just like you would in your home iTunes Store. These podcasts will show up with all your others and will update as expected.
On the right side of the Podcast section of the iTunes Stores, there is a listing of the top podcasts. At the various stores I looked at, the top podcasts were generally news, public affairs and comedy, presented in audio or video formats.
Beside being a great way to learn a language, podcasts from other countries are also a great way for expats to keep up with the news and culture from their home country.
