I'm trying to get my podcast to feed through Itunes but I keep getting the message that my host needs to enable byte-range requests. How can this be since I'm able to have other podcast directories list my feed with no problem? My host is webhostingpad and my feed is http://www.southsidecoc.org/?podcast
Any suggestions on how to fix the issue would be helpful.

Because of the number of complaints there have been of iPhones not being able to play some podcasts, Apple now require the server you host your media files on to have 'byte-range support' enabled - basically this means coping with requests for only part of a file at a time, which is required for the iPhone. You should confirm with your hosting service that they support this: if they don't (or don't know what it is) you should find another hosting service.
Note that this applies to the server which hosts the episode files, not the feed - they don't have to be on the same server, though often they are, but it's not an issue with the feed at all.
