Large images in Episodes are not presented as the entire card in apple podcasts #127

I have a feed that is generated through podgen, and it works great aside from one sticky issue I haven't been able to debug and was wondering if this community has any idea what's going on.

On the left in the screenshot below is the economist whos episode image properly takes up the entire card in the podcasts app (feed here, use curl). When using the same image url in both the episode itself and in the podcast root in my feed however, it still doesn't take up the entire card.

Do we know why that is?

This may very well be an apple nuance issue but figured y'all would know.

On the Economist feed I see an image tag just after the <itunes:image> have you tried setting the image and see if that works? The rest appears to be the same

Ahh great idea, but looks like it didn't fix the issue. I updated that gist with that content if you want to try it yourself.
