I host my podcast on Libsyn and upload to Apple Podcasts via RSS feed. When I publish, it typically takes 30 -60 minutes for the podcast to appear. However, my last podcast was released 5 days ago and is still not appearing on Apple Podcasts, but is on every other platform.
My podcast is set to check the RSS feed daily - and the last update was a couple of hours ago.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Sorry, first time asking a question in this forum, wasn't sure what info I needed to provide.

thanks.
You have an error in the feed which is preventing Apple Podcasts from reading it. Line 34 is the title tag of your top episode, September 14th. It reads:
<title>035: WATER moves up theSUSTAINABILITY agenda - How one company leads by example</title>
Between 'the' and 'SUSTAINABILITY' is an invisible character: I don't know what it is - it may be a soft return - but its presence is not allowed in XML. You should retype the title, being careful to insert a space there and not any form of formatting instruction.
The title is now valid: it may take up to a couple of days for Apple Podcasts 'Browse' to catch up: subscribers on a Mac see the episodes now (as they read the feed directly).
A delay in new episodes appearing is normal, but it's usually up to 2 days. Otherwise, I can't comment unless you post the URLs of both your feed and your Apple Podcasts page - how could I?
Thanks for your help! I have re-input the title, will let you know if that works.
