Podcast won't post to iTunes

I keep getting rejected with this message saying " the podcast in not included in the apple podcast directory. the podcast contains explicit content but the explicit tag is not yet set to yes, explicit, or true. my podbean says I have it on but is still getting rejected. Its been validated multiple times on multiple validator sites. I guess i need to add this tag ( <itunes:explicit> ) or ( <itunes:explicit>yes</itunes:explicit>) but i don't know how or where to edit the rss feed.

I just tried validating your site in Podcasts Connect and it said 'Prepared for Submission'. meaning it's OK. Your 'itunes:explicit' tags are correctly set. I notice that they say 'Yes' - I don't know whether the process is case-sensitive, strictly they should say 'yes' so see whether you can change that.


Try submitting it again. If you get a rejection again, contact Podcasts Support and ask them to look into it. Go to https://itunespartner.apple.com/en/podcasts/overview and click the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of the page.
