Hi, My Podcast Officalcallmenevi is showing up in the Apple podcast app but when I go to connect it to my Itunes account it is saying that Parse cant feed cant validate error. I put my RSS in the Feed Validator but dnt understand a thing that it is telling me. I am new to this but am very willing to learn. Any help is much appreciated thank you!
If you submit the feed yourself when signed into your own Apple ID, it's your podcast. If it's submitted by Anchor under their ID (I'm not entirely familiar with their methods) it's essentially theirs - for example you can't access statistics, or change the feed URL.
If it's already been submitted by them you are stuck unless you cancel it altogether and start over. If they won't let you submit it under your own ID, find another host. Apple have posted a list of recommended podcasting services:
https://itunespartner.apple.com/en/podcasts/partnersearch
Some of these have to be paid for.

That's the URL of your Anchor web page, not your feed. Your feed is at
https://anchor.fm/s/d6e0598/podcast/rss
Podcasts Connect says your feed has already been submitted. Once it's been submitted you can't validate it there.
Who submitted the feed? You or Anchor? If they submitted it under their Apple ID it's in effect their podcast and not yours. I assume that it's still under review by the podcasts staff. They may object to your 'itunes:summary' tag in the top section of the feed, which is too brief - it's from there that the Store takes its 'Description' text. It should be a couple of lines giving a general description of the podcast - you have one brief sentence and a puff for Anchor.
Your image file size is far too large at 1.4MB - it must be less than 500kB, and I'm surprised it wasn't rejected immediately.
What is the URL of your feed?
Thank you for responding my Url is https://anchor.fm/officialcalmenevi
Thank you so very much for the information. I learned a lot. How can I make the show mine? Or is that a crazy question to ask?
I want to own my own podcast!! so I'll be scraping it!! Thank you once again!!
Podcast is showing up on Apple when I search but my RSS is not being validated when I try to connect my Itunes account.
