  HTML transcripts don’t display correctly.

  Hi there, @kapods22! Thanks for sharing a link to one of the episodes.
  Could you give me an example of a portion of the episode transcript that is not showing up correctly? You can also share a screenshot. Once we have more details we can investigate further. Thank you!
  Update: Our team has identified the error in the transcript. This should be fixed in a future update.

  Thanks for the screenshot! That is how the transcript appears for me on mobile also.

  Update: The line breaks are fixed, but most speaker names are missing and it is still plain text (no bold, italics, or links). Here is a screenshot comparing how it looks in Pocket Casts to the HTML file in the <podcast:transcript> tag.

  Thanks for the update, @kapods22! I’ve asked our developers to look into this again.
