My Question or Issue

None of the podcasts produced by Slate (ICYMI, Slate News, Slate Money, Slow Burn, etc) will play on my iphone. They seem to play on my laptop (Macbook Air). It's been going on for weeks. I've done all of the troubleshooting things I'm supposed to and nothing works. I don't think it's a me problem.

Same exact problem. And same Slate podcasts don’t work on Apple Podcasts for me either. No clue why. I’ve tried turning off ad blockers, vpn’s, etc, and even trying to download the episodes doesn’t work. It’s been occurring on and off for months for me.

Hey folks,

Thanks for reaching out.

We've tested this on our end, however, we couldn't reproduce the issue. Can you please let us know what happens when you try to play the podcast? Are you seeing an error message? A few screenshots or a short video would help us in our investigation.

Also, please send us your Spotify version and if possible, ask a friend or a family member to log in on your device to see if the issue is present in their account as well.

Let us know how it goes.

Same issue here, doesn’t play on Spotify or apple podcast. 
I press play and it just doesn’t play, I’ve downloaded it but that makes no difference. Works on laptop without issue.
