 * No. Changes made to your feed settings should show up in your public Apple Podcasts
   listing within 24 hours of the changes being made. You don’t need to do anything
   else.

 * Hello Shawn,
 * Thank you for your response. This brings me to my initial problem. I will try
   to be as concise and clear as possible.
 * I installed Blubrry Powerpress in wordpress a couple of weeks ago to submit my
   podcast to itunes. When I made the first episode and submitted it (via a blogpost),
   it showed up perfectly fine on itunes. But the issue was that Powerpress also
   picked up an episode from a blog post from 2017. I have no clue why Powerpress
   did that. So now on my itunes listing there are two episodes: one recent (which
   I want) and one from 2017 which I desperately want to remove. To remove that 
   episode I tried the following solutions but to no avail.
 * 1. Change the ‘Number of Episodes to show on itunes’ to 1 (inside Powerpress 
   advanced settings) so that itunes only shows the episode I want. I made this 
   change a week ago but itunes still shows 2 episodes.
 * 2. Removed the media link from the Blubrry box (where you have the ‘Verify Media’
   button) inside the 2017 blog post. But this didn’t work as well. I am still confused
   as to why BluBrry autofilled that box in the first place.
 * 3. Contact itunes support but they haven’t responded yet.
 * Removing the entire 2017 blogpost is not an option as it is a news article and
   important to my site. Can you please guide me to what I am doing wrong or missing?
 * Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

 * Wordpress itself has a low-level podcasting functionality that is engaged when
   you drop a direct link to a media file into a blog post. Go back to the post 
   from 2017 and make sure the Podcast Episode box is empty. Then, edit the text
   of the post so it’s using the WordPress audio shortcode instead of a direct link
   to the media file. That should, hopefully, take it out of your podcast RSS feed:

 * Shawn,
 * I followed your steps and also changed the status of the blog post from 2017 
   to ‘Draft’. Now, I think that one of those steps removed that old episode that
   I don’t want. When I click feed validate (BluBrry PowerPress Advanced Settings)
   through CastFeedValidator.com, I just see the episodes that I want. So I think
   my feed is perfectly fine now.
 * But a couple of days ago, itunes just removed my podcast. I have no clue why.
   Maybe it had to do something with the unwanted episode.
 * But as of today, as I wrote above, I have a perfectly fine feed. So should I 
   submit the exact same feed again to itunes?
 * Again, thank you so much for all of your help.

 * If you’ve run the feed thru CastFeedValidator and everything came up fine, you’ll
   need to contact Apple support and ask them why your show was delisted. You can
   do that by clicking the Contact Us link at the bottom of this page:

 * Alright will do that. By the way, do you think re-submitting the exact same feed
   url to itunes will help? Because most probably, when itunes delisted the podcast,
   the feed still had some issues with the unwanted episode. But now that has been
   removed and the feed is corrected, is re-submitting the way to go?
 * Again Shawn, you are a life saver. Much appreciated.

 * A feed submitted before can’t be submitted again. Apple’s Podcasts Connect portal
   will put up a message warning that the feed has already been submitted. If the
   show was delisted by Apple, the only way to get it back in is to submit with 
   a totally different URL, which’ll create a brand new listing (all old ratings/
   reviews will be lost) or to contact Apple support and ask them to revive the 
   old listing.
