Hello Community, I’m having trouble with getting my latest podcast episode to the various streaming/publisher services: apple podcast, spotify, etc. Here’s what I know: - [wordpress.org](http://wordpress.org) site [www.speakthescience.com](http://www.speakthescience.com) hosted by [dreamhost.com](http://dreamhost.com) - I use Podlove to create episodes, and Media Cloud to take my mp3 files and store them to the storage provider S3 Amazon. - I was able to find the podcast mp3 in my s3 amazon “bucket”. The bucket is named mbjc and is set to public. The podcast episode’s or “object”'s S3 URI is s3://mbjc/2022/06/MBJC044.mp3 and Object URL is [https://mbjc.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/2022/06/MBJC044.mp3](https://mbjc.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/2022/06/MBJC044.mp3) - Media Cloud has the storage provider set to Amazon S3, the correct bucket “mbjc” name and access key. - Podlove has my podcast feed listed as [https://speakthescience.com/feed/mbjc/](https://speakthescience.com/feed/mbjc/) . The podcast feed slug is mbjc. I recently messed with my RSS by redirecting it using the RSS Redirect feedburner / foundit plugin(red herring?). In the Podlove feed basic settings for the MBJC feed, I have the Feed Proxy Redirect Method set to “Don’t redirect” . I did this because of my feedburner experience. Should I change it to the recommended “Temporary Redirect” setting? - Since my previous episode and after my feedburner plugin, I have not been able to release a new episode. I have created an episode, “published” it, see it on my website and can even play the audio on my webpage. Web page: [[Miss Behavior Journal Club Podcast – Speak the Science](https://speakthescience.com/miss-behavior-journal-club-podcast/)]; Episode in question: [[https://speakthescience.com/ep-44-what-the-kids-are-listening-to-abrams-et-al-2022/879/](https://speakthescience.com/ep-44-what-the-kids-are-listening-to-abrams-et-al-2022/879/)] - Podlove dashboard says my episode has been published. Episode “2022/06/MBJ044” is the numbering system used by amazon’s aw s3 - Podlove Support Debug Logging reports a number of errors at the time I attempted to release my episode. This and the Bug Report can be found below. One error message reads "Can’t reach [https://mbjc.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/06/MBJC04.mp3](https://mbjc.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/06/MBJC04.mp3) " as if it’s attempting to access MBJC04 not MBJC044. I can not find where 04 is entered anywhere regarding this episode. I am very inexperienced with jargon and would love your help fixing this issue. Let me know if you need any more details.

I wish someone in the community had been willing to reach out. In case anyone else has a similar problem, I’ll try to explain what happen, though I’m such a novice, I will probably misspeak. When I reset the RSS feed name with a feedburner redirect plugin “Follow it”, it was changed and remained changed even after I “deactivated” the forwarding of the feed. The person previously in charge of my podcast distribution still owned my Feedburner URLs for my podcast and I didn’t even know. “Oh, do you want me to transfer ownership?” he says. I didn’t even know it was a thing or that it was the place a fix needed to be made to solve my problem. He updated the Feedburner to point to the new RSS and everything began posting again. All the other inconsistencies I found with close examination of my episode posting process were red herrings. Hope this helps someone or that no one needs this help to begin with. -A-
