This was my attempt at using Podium with SketchUp. I know it's supposed to be an easy interface, but it's a little frustrating not knowing how to control the effects you're getting. For example, my lovely striped floor. Sun settings would change the size of the stripes but not remove them. Changing the reflectivity of the floor diminished them some. I'm guessing that maybe there is something in the model that is allowing light to seep through, but I'm not sure. Other than that, I think it produces fairly decent renders. I especially like the predefined light fixtures. As you can see I used a few.
