My Question or Issue

Hey, @Spinelli2 
Welcome to the Spotify Community, and thanks for reaching out to us here!

Could you give me more information about this issue you brought to our attention, please?

What exactly is happening and what is your Spotify version?

Keep me posted! I'd love to help! 

Have a great day! ✌️

Hi there
I have been listening to a podcast almost daily for the last 5 years.. called Wisdom of the Masters.
All of a sudden it’s completely disappeared as is all my downloaded episodes.
It says can’t find that page or try again.
I have recently started listening to another podcast which resembled the Wisdom one. There is no information about the person doing it which I found strange it’s called untangle your mind.
Anyway I am very distressed. I have logged in and out. I have deleted and reinstalled the app in my phone. I have changed my password too.
Thanks for helping
Penny

Hi Spinelli,

so did I and was also super confused with my playlilst being empty all of a sudden.

Wisdom of the Masters was closed by spotify for music copyright infrigment, apparently. It's a few files though the full Podcast was closed.

Such a huge deservice to the spiritual community!

On a good note, Samaneri Jayasāra has a Youtube page...

Noooooo.. thank you for letting me know. I’m so disappointed it was just amazing.
Will have to resort to you tube now..
Thanks so much
Penny

Hey again, @Spinelli2 

Thanks for the update and for bringing more information.

I checked here on my own Spotify account, and I cannot find the "Wisdom of the Masters" podcast you mentioned either, so it seems that this show was removed from Spotify, as @HappyJonh said. This happens because of different reasons and it's something that is out of our scope here in the community. 

I can recommend that, if you want, contact the creator and ask them for more information about what happened and ask them to bring the show back to Spotify.

Stay awesome! 💚

Let me know if you have further questions or need anything else! I'd love to help!

I have 5 different podcasts that have all the episodes vanished too. One of them I was listening to a couple of hours ago and like the rest it's stating there are no episodes available. This is with ALL my saved (followed) podcasts. Even ones showing a blue dot stating they have new episodes but they too are empty upon opening.

ive uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared cache, and even tried an old version of Spotify, but nothing is working.

Is there a glitch in Spotify?

Maybe amazon music would be a better investment?
