My PW to the site stopped working- so I reset it and I figured I needed to re-enter it into my RSS Feed in Pocket Casts APP. I tried to re-enter the RSS feed the same way has before which worked up until the other day with my new PW and It the Pocket Casts APP displays "No podcast found" . Is anyone else having this issue?

Thanks

You might have to make sure your subscription is up to date. Other than that I have no way of troubleshooting the issue.

I can't do anything about the situation except to tell you to get a hold of Greg directly. In the "Help" section of the plus he states:

If you have any issues, just email TheHighersideChatsTeam@gmail.com with "Plus Subscription Issue" in the subject line.

Thanks,

-Greg

That is the best approach to getting your level of problems' solved. I'm sorry that I am unable to help more.

Issues here too :(
I use Pocket Casts on Android.
The plus feed stopped updating, though the free one still works.
I unsubscribed, reset my password, resubscribed, now I only see 1 ep in the feed :( it actually got worse!

Hoping Greg can get this sorted.

My podcast feed suddenly broke, too.

I tried to change my password of this site via "Edit my profile" on the home page, leading to a popup.
(However, the new password wasn't saved into the database and I had to use the old one later on.)

On trying to logout and to login immediately, I got the error: "to many invalid login tries, wait 30 minutes".
I could login after waiting for 30 minutes, but using the old password.
(I also tried the "forgot my password option", but now email was sent!).

I suspect that this 30 minute delay is a DOS protection may cause secondary errors, when people already trying to access the podcast. Although the podcast software simply states "wrong credentials" or "got HTML", the error message is probably misleading and not accurate. Thus confusing people.

A simple test to check the podcast feed, is to enter the URL in the browser and enter the credentials in the resulting browser form:
https://www.thehighersidechatsplus.com/feed/thc-plus/

However, right now, the podcast is working for me again.

Should be fixed!

Just make sure you're subscribing to: https://www.thehighersidechatsplus.com/feed/thc-plus/ and you've cleared out all the old data/refreshed the app.

Let me know if it's not working, but after the morning I've had, we couldn't find any reasons why anyone would have a problem.

refreshed the feed and its working now :) I can finally listen to the tracy Twyman episode. The built in player in mobile browser doesnt have variable speed so I couldnt use it. I cant listen at anything less than 1.5x speed, I'm weird.
