From 52e9ae0ab7fe1eb8bd354d3a9ffcc2ea0bb1d13b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Freno Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2026 19:12:08 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] fix(discover): correct 5 wrong RSS feed URLs in featured.json The original featured.json had 5 entries pointing at the wrong podcasts because verification only checked the feed's loosely matched. Each wrong URL happened to share a slug/name with the intended show: - All-In Podcast: feeds.transistor.fm/all-in was a Verizon internal comms show (6 eps from 2020), not the Chamath/Sacks/Friedberg/ Calacanis show. -> allinchamathjason.libsyn.com/rss (405 eps) - Code Switch: NPR feed ID 510352 was 'I\'ll Be Seeing You'. -> 510312 (correct Code Switch feed, 637 eps) - Stuff You Should Know: rss.art19.com/stuff-you-should-know was a different show by 'Podgo' (7 eps). -> iHeart omnycontent URL (2855 eps, Josh Clark & Chuck Bryant) - Philosophize This!: feed.podbean.com/... returned 0 items. -> philosophizethis.libsyn.com/rss (189 eps, Stephen West) - Very Bad Wizards: feed.podbean.com/... returned 0 items. -> feeds.libsyn.com/474285/rss (345 eps, official feed) Bumps version 1 -> 2 so the discover store re-fetches immediately. All 5 corrected URLs verified: 200 OK, valid RSS, matching <title> and <itunes:author>, sensible episode counts, recent pubDates. --- discover/featured.json | 16 ++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/discover/featured.json b/discover/featured.json index 5b3ece2..780fe19 100644 --- a/discover/featured.json +++ b/discover/featured.json @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ { - "version": 1, + "version": 2, "podcasts": [ { "id": "discover-daily", @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ "id": "discover-code-switch", "title": "Code Switch", "description": "Race.
