Wrong Podcast Artwork/image displays on iPod in the Podcast app

I have 28 Apple Podcast shows on my iPod Touch v6 that all show the same artwork. This artwork is for a defunct show that hasnt been on my iPod for at least a year. Formerly I had this problem for a few shows and it wasnt such a big deal and I ignored it. Now it makes it hard to find the shows I want to listen to. Almost all newly added shows take this same image. I download shows onto my MacBookPro using the Podcast app and then transfer them to the iPod Touch using Mac Finder. I am wondering if I could find that image somewhere on the iPod Touch device and delete it, if it would solve the problem (using iMazing, maybe?).

Its strange. When I open Podcasts in iMazing and do a Quick Look at each episode, they show the correct artwork for the most part. It seems that the artwork is possibly encoded in the podcast show file but the Podcast app is not reading it correctly, maybe pulling up a default file out of its nether region instead. The list of the shows even in iMazing use the same wrong artwork for each episode listed. So maybe there is some artwork file associated with the show.

On the MacBookPro in the Podcast app the correct artwork shows for all the podcast shows and all the individual episodes.
