The 'Description' text in the iTunes Sotre is taken from the 'itunes:summary' tag in the top section of the feed (before the firtst 'item' tag. Yours reads 'New podcast weblog' which is, to say the least, insufficiently informative - this sort of thing is likely to lead to rejection. You need to write a more detailed description of what your podcast is about - three or four lines - to replace what you have now.
