Transfer podcast ownership
I am the current owner of a published podcast.
How should I proceed in order to transfer it to someone else (future owner)?
The future owner has already a apple ID account and iTunes access.
Thanks

I have updates on this.
Yes, it is possible to do.
Yes, it is necessary to contact the Apple support.
It's not that difficult. After the first answer (<24h) the final ok was pretty fast (minutes), and then it's done.
Here are the steps, for future record:
0 - Contact apple support from the current owner of the podcast: Contact Us -> Podcasts(My Issue Is Not Listed).
... wait for them to answer with further instructions and a code...
1. Insert the authorization code “xxxxxx” in the <itunes:keywords> or <copyright> tag.
2. Verify that your Apple ID is activated.
3. Obtain the direct link to your show on Apple Podcasts.
4. Customize the statement below, and paste it in your reply to this message.
I authorize changing management in Podcasts Connect and access to Podcast Analytics to the account [Apple ID email address]. As requested, I have inserted the authorization code in the [specify tag] tag.

I don't know whether this is possible. Only Podcasts Support can do this, and obviously they will be extremely cautious since you don't want just anyone claiming ownershiip of a podcast. Go to https://itunespartner.apple.com/en/podcasts/overview and click the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of the page.
Thank you.
In my mind, the process would be something like:
I will start by contacting support as you suggested, let's see what happens.
I'll let you know if I'm able to do it.
Thanks for posting your result: it's useful to know (since obviously it's not something one can test) and I'll keep your answer for future reference.
