I can not log into podcast connect.

You're not the first in the last couple of days. This appears to be the recurrence of a bug which was going on a few weeks back. Hopefully Apple know about it and are working on it, but you could report it to Podcasts Support. Go to https://itunespartner.apple.com/en/podcasts/overview and click the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of the page. There isn't really anything else you can do until it's sorted out.

Support have asked that you should email them directly at mailto:podcastssupport@apple.com (just click this link). They would like you to supply the following information:

• Approximate date and time the error occurred (including the time zone)

• Full-window screenshots or video illustrating the issue

• Confirmation of the username you are using

• Web browsers that you were able to reproduce the issue in

• Web browser version numbers

• System information (device model and OS version number)

• The URL of the page you are on

• Is this your first time accessing Podcasts Connect?

• What are the RSS feeds and titles to the podcasts that you have submitted before?

Last time this happened the Support page didn't work for me either, failing once I posted the report. However this time it did, so I've passed on your comments and a reference to this thread.
