The most probably explanation is that the method you are using to create your feed is deleting or archiving episodes once a certain number is reached. For example, I believe it's 20 in Wordpress, and poster seogroup reported that this could be increased in Dashboard > Settings > Reading > Syndication Feeds Shows the most recent ____ Items.

There are likely to be similar settings in other services. Apple Podcasts itself allows 300 episodes (at least, iTunes used to and I assume it's the same now).
