Blog Cover Images Fail to Load in Production

After redirecting the WordPress site to show this site instead, cover images for blogs failed to load. This should be treated as a high-priority bug ticket, as it is pervasive and disruptive to the user experience.

Using jetpack_featured_media_url instead of episode_featured_image restores some, but not all, images.

Trying to upload images locally will be the next attempt.

Adding images locally and redirecting cover images to the /wp-content/uploads version of them does the trick.

Images will likely have to be committed and pushed one year at a time. Additionally, the version of the posts constant that featured the updated episode_featured_image values will likely have to be restored.

This has been resolved using the solution most recently described above.
