Podcast Landing page content

@olayway I published episodes 3&4 and episode 2 #664 under the podcast section on the website. Initially episodes 3 & 4 were showing up. But since making updates to the copy episodes 3 & 4 are now no longer showing. Episode 2 has never shown up. I've compared with other podcast notes on Obsidian but I can't figure out a fix. Can you shed any light?

Small update - none of the 3 episodes are showing up on the main podcast page but [episode 2 when I was the url] works](https://lifeitself.org/podcast/homo-sapiens-the-cultural-species), but 3 & 4 has a 404 error.

[olayway]

@laurenwigmore Podcast 2 is showing up but with "Invalid date":

This is because podcast document type doesn't support created field, but date field.

[olayway]

@laurenwigmore Podcasts 3 and 4 were skipped in the build (along with some blog post) due to incorrect usage of frontmatter fields.

@laurenwigmore what is left in this issue? Can we close?

I could do with doing some smaller social media actions on this to promote, but I can make a note and will close this now
