Restrictions do not allow explicit content

Just updated my to iOS 8.4 a couple of minutes ago. After the update, a few of my podcasts have been greyed out and when I try to play it, the following message appears


Content Not allowed - Restrictions do not allow explicit content


Any idea how would I be able to adjust the settings so that I can get back to my podcasts?

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4

Found the answer after some googling


Go to Settings -> General -> Restrictions


Regardless if Restriction is turned on or off, for my case it is already off, turn it ON. Scroll down to Allowed content, under Music & Podcast, change CLEAN to EXPLICIT.


After that feel free to turn restrictions back off again. The settings should stay, and your podcasts should be able to be played normally again.
