In this insightful exchange, we embark on a comprehensive analysis of the podcasting ecosystem, focusing particularly on the technical specifications that underpin successful content distribution. Central to our discourse is the significance of a valid RSS feed, which serves as the backbone of podcast accessibility. We dissect the various types of errors that can plague a feed and the resultant impact on listener experience.
