Podcast feed validation problems

    A smartphone app provider pulls in our podcasts feed. The app system keeps disabling the feed because it supposedly doesn’t validate. As shown in the W3C RSS validator results, an issue seems to be with outdated RSS namespace schema, a missing owner email item and perhaps the ITEM tag not being on a separate line.
    All that said, when I manually enable the podcast feed in the app, the podcasts come through just fine. But the system keeps disabling the feed every day until the feed validates.

    The W3C validator is outdated and will never show a modern podcast RSS feed as valid. I ran your feed thru Cast Feed Validator and everything came back fine. If this smartphone app is relying on the W3C validator, tell them to check the feed in a modern validator like Cast Feed Validator or Podbase instead.
