Every single 'Piers Morgan Uncensored' (+ more!) podcast states "episode unavailable" for last year

My Apple iPhone is updated to 16.7.2. Every single 'Piers Morgan Uncensored' podcast cannot be played. I get a popup that reads "episode unavailable" whether they are new or old podcasts. This happens to a few other podcasts as well. I do not want to listen on iTunes as I want to play using the podcast app. Please provide a workaround.

iPhone 8, iOS 16

After spending several hours of research with Apple tech support with escalation, I can help you with your issue. The only way to listen to Piers podcasts are with a VPN set to a UK address or through YouTube. Piers podcasts are not available outside of the UK (probably due to sponsorship issues).

The version of his podcast put out by Sky News Australia is not working at all: the episodes I checked don't play on Apple Podcasts or when subscibing on Caetalina, and the podcast's own website doesn't play either:

So it's nothing to do with Apple and the workaround is for the authors to sort this out.
