Problem Apple Podcasts: VDT ep. 130 (PREMIUM) IS NOT Voice Mail Dumptruck, but an ep. of Game Mess Mornings. Please fix.

As the title says: the latest episode of the Voice Mail Dumptruck, ep. 130, IS NOT the VDT, but instead an episode of Game Mess Mornings.

Update: The issue appears to be fixed; a "new" VDT ep. 130 was just uploaded to Apple Podcasts.

Thanks.

Sorry that I did not catch your thread earlier. As I summarized on the 09/14/2024 Community Spotlight, here's what was done behind the scene to address this issue:

@turboshawn spent days looking at and working on the issue and discovered that Giant Bomb's video host was having issues earlier this week, so he couldn't post the episode page to the site at all. It's up now, and the premium version of the podcast should be available as well. For those of you that noticed that yesterday's Dumptruck premium was yesterday's GMM, the problem has been resolved as well.

Now, for those of you that use PocketCasts, things have continued to be up and down, but here's what Shawn is advising. If you have sudden issues first go to this page https://www.giantbomb.com/feeds/ and click "RSS" to the right of "Giant Bombcast (Premium)" (in a desktop browser, sometimes mobile redirects it to an app). Look for the text in the first couple "paragraphs" of "Most of the usual crew was out this week, so guest host Tam brings in Shawn, Niki, and Mike" (you can just search with CTRL+F). If it's there, the RSS feed is working properly for you and it's a Pocket Casts thing (maybe re-submit it at https://pocketcasts.com/submit/).

Luckily, we recently confirmed that the Premium version of the Bombcast rolled out to Pocket Casts, but you'll have to re-download the new version of the RSS feed. If you are still having issues with your feed, the issue is likely on Pocket Cast's end heard but their customer support tends to be pretty good about manually fixing things on their end if you reach out.
