Research direction

Start by reviewing how River5 handles the NYT Daily feed, then compare the feedvalidator result with the nodeFeedDebug behavior described in the issue. Reproduce the missing-feed behavior and determine whether the invalid-feed response explains it; done means the cause is identified and The Daily appears again on podcatch.com.

Description

Another possible River5 problem. For the last two days the NYT Daily podcast hasn't shown up on podcatch.com. I was willing to write it off as a one-time glitch yesterday, but when it happened again today, I'm starting to get concerned. Here's the feedvalidator link to the feed. As you can see it's saying it's not valid, but I also fed it through my own feed debugger, which exactly mimicks what River5 does with feeds, and it seems okay with it. I'm starting a thread for this.
