Unsure if this belongs in the iOS or iPhone subsection of the forums, so I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong place.

A few days ago, I got the "cannot verify server identity" popup for my work email (exchange). I cleared it and then, one by one, I got more "cannot verify server identity" popups but the server was different every time...each of them appeared to be servers for podcasts that I subscribe to...not all of the podcasts I subscribe to, but quite a few of them. I cleared the notifications thinking nothing of it, so I unfortunately didn't screenshot anything.

Ever since, I haven't been able to listen to multiple podcasts. When I push play, I either get a notification that says "unable to play, something went wrong, please try again later" OR I don't get a notification but the scrubber just stays at 0:00.

The main podcasts in question are Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro, if that matters.

The other weird part is that despite the initial notification about my email server, my email never stopped working. The other OTHER weird part is that the podcast episodes are already downloaded to my phone.

I tried killing the podcast app and reopening it, I tried turning airplane mode on and then back off, and I tried restarting the phone. No dice. Also, the issue persists across multiple wifi networks and LTE.

I'm pretty technologically inclined and normally can figure out how to fix any problem I have, but this one has me stumped. Does anyone know what the problem could be or how to resolve it?
