At the top right, there is a "Meetings" tab; the list of meetings is at the left. Click on one that has already happened, and you'll be able to click on the agenda. To watch the meeting, the link is given at the end of the text at the right above the agenda.
This is a little harder. You can click on a meeting (in blue) to view the agenda and presentations, and then click on the audio/visual at the right to download the video (they're about 70 MB in size) and watch them.
