    Hi Shawn,

    the main problem is probably that it takes a lot of time (maybe to much) to load this feed. I can open it in my browser. It takes some seconds until I see the content. But when I try to validate it e.g. with https://validator.w3.org/feed , the validator says always “Server returned timed out”. The iTunes Store is maybe as impatient as the validator. (But I have opened the feed in my browser and copied and pasted the source code into the validator: the feed is valid! All settings are okay and podPress does not make funny things.)
    I believe that the server of your blog is maybe a little bit slow.
    If you can not do something about that circumstance then you could try speed up things a little bit by reducing the number of posts in the feeds. Site Admin > General Settings > Reading Settings > Syndication feeds show the most recent The default value is 10 posts. Usually that is a good setting. podPress should not slow down the feed like in your case if this value is 10. Maybe try 8 or 5.?

    Hi Tim,

    That solved the validator, now to see if iTunes picks it up.

    Thanks as always for your help!
