I fixed this bug. 😊 To give a little bit more of a context of what happened here:

Last time I worked on this I added some logic that was a little bit more complicated than needed because Simplecast has a bug, and unfortunately this workaround introduced a bug. 🙁

Usually, `https://simplecast.com/oembed?url=` **`URL`** should return a JSON with some information, but for specific links it does not work.

For example,

`https://tgd.simplecast.com/episodes/dan-blackman-and-robyn-kanner-the-power-7fe152f4`

`https://simplecast.com/oembed?url=https://tgd.simplecast.com/episodes/dan-blackman-and-robyn-kanner-the-power-7fe152f4`
