What happened?

When attempting to add the podcast Experimental Brewing via RSS (https://www.experimentalbrew.com/feed/podcast/) into a podcast library using the Add function, the addition fails with the following error in the logs:

[podcastUtils] getPodcastFeed Error TypeError: Cannot convert object to primitive value at Array.join 
(<anonymous>)at Array.toString (<anonymous>) at extractEpisodeData 
(/app/server/utils/podcastUtils.js:208:55) at /app/server/utils/podcastUtils.js:288:23 at Array.forEach 
(<anonymous>) at extractPodcastEpisodes (/app/server/utils/podcastUtils.js:287:9) at cleanPodcastJson 
(/app/server/utils/podcastUtils.js:310:24) at module.exports.parsePodcastRssFeedXml

(node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5) at async /app/server/utils/podcastUtils.js:386:23

What did you expect to happen?

The podcast should be added in the same way as other podcasts I've added before and since first encountering the error.

This podcast RSS is the only one I've encountered this error with, and I am able to use this RSS feed successfully in Thunderbird's RSS manager.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. In a Podcast type library using an admin account, navigate to the Add page from the left toolbar
  2. Paste the RSS feed link https://www.experimentalbrew.com/feed/podcast/ into the search box
    • You can also reproduce the issue by searching 'experimental brewing' in the search box
  3. Click Submit and, if using the search feature, click the entry that appears below the search box
