Apple Podcasts Episodes missing

Ive been running a podcast for half a year and one of a sudden all podcast episodes disappeared from the Apple Podcasts (show page & feed). Apple Podcasts Connect and show page is stuck on with the last refresh 4 days ago. I can’t refresh the page anymore. I also tried signing in from a different account as a co-host of the show — same issue. We uploaded the new episode and it’s showing but the previous ones are missing.

spotify runs well, we use SoundCloud as the main platform

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17

Several people have posted with roughly similar problems so possibly something odd is going on at Apple's end. You would probably do best to contact Podcasts Support: https://podcastsconnect.apple.com/contact-us

I noticed the issue multiple times also in the posts and I contacted apple support to see if they knew of the issue.

It does look like over the past week+ that Apple had been removing and adding back a bunch of podcasts (5k to 10k) per day. This likely has something to do with that.

I heard from Apple that this was per an issue with Soundcloud.

Here is a link to the Soundcloud post.
