Q: My New Podcast Isn't Working

I recently added my podcast, "What Were We Talking About?", to iTunes... probably about a month ago.  I received the "Accepted" email from iTunes, but only one of the episodes (Episode 9) will actually play via the Podcast App. Episode 1 has the blue dot on the left, but will not play.  The other episodes all have gray circles on the left.  I receive the "This episode is temporarily unavailable from 'What Were We Talking About'" whenever I do try to play any of them via the Podcast App.  Below are ScreenCaps of what I see in the Podcast App (Episode 1 is gray in these images because Episode 1 turned Blue literally as I was writing this, but it still doesn't play):

On the Desktop iTunes, I can find my Podcast, but whenever I try to play any of them I get is the rotating circle like it's trying to Play it.  It never actually plays any of them, including Episode 9 (which works in the Podcast App).  It won't even let me download them.  Below are ScreenCaps of my Desktop iTunes:

My RSS feed is through SoundCloud (http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:33649084/sounds.rss). I'm not sure what I did wrong or if there is something wrong with iTunes as a whole.  I followed the directions given by Soundcloud here and here.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
