Q: Podcast Not Validating

Hello, I'm trying to validate this feed:

https://cannabislifenetwork.com/category/audio/extractly/feed/

 

But for some reason I keep getting the "Can't download episodes from your feed." error.

 

I've checked the feed on a number of checking services and don't see anything really wrong with this feed. Any suggestions here?

 

Thanks!

    You do not have a valid enclosure tag in your feed - i.e. a media file.

     

    You have to publish at least one media file (episode) to submit the feed.

    Your episode does not have an 'enclosure' tag containing the URL of your media file, as required by iTunes. Your associated web page leads to another page which has a 'pop-over' page containing an embedded player: this won't work. You must provide a direct link to the MP3 file and it must be enclosed in an 'enclosure' tag together with attributes of length and type.
