How do I change my podcast back to a music file?

I had a dumb idea that I regret having.

I thought that changing an audio book I had downloaded to my iTunes (PC) would be easier to manage as a podcast. I was very wrong. Now I want to change it back to music and the feature is not available. How do I get my files changed back from podcast to music?

Podcasts have the header and then the episodes:



If you select the Podcast Series header, the option is Get Info:


not Podcast Info. You only see Podcast Info if you select an individual episode.




Note that when I returned this audiobook back from Podcasts, it split the chapters into two.

Yes. I can see the podcast in the list easily enough, but when I right click to pull up the option menu, the Podcast Info option is not there as it in in any other medium. I have googled the issue and find instructions to use the convert feature, but all of the convert options are greyed out in the Podcast list.
