Q: Changing Your Podcast Description and Image

I have been podcasting for just under a year. The show has grown and evolved and I would really like to update the description and image to more fully reflect and explain the show. The current description is super super brief. I've been told to change the description, I would need to change it in the feed. If I do this, will it mess up any current subscribers?

A:

You can make any changes you like in the feed: subscribers will see the changes almost immediately though the Store may take a couple of days to change. Doing this doesn't affect subscribers in any other way. If you are going to change the image it's important to give it a new file name, otherwise the Sotre, which caches the image, will have no way of knowing it's changed. It can take quite some days for the change to appear.

    What is your show title and / or iTunes store page?
