Hello thejaguar007,
it seems that the episodes including videos are duplicated posts. When you create a post and you add a video WordPress generates some hidden fields containing the video id. Even if you change the video, those hidden fields are not refreshed.

When you create a new post you cannot duplicate a previous one, you have to create a new post from scratch.

This is a well known WordPress issue (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37597) but the WordPress developers don’t want to do anything about it because they say it is a very remote case. See these links:

• https://github.com/xwp/wordpress-develop/pull/254#issuecomment-330510134
• https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/31245#comment:45

The only solution to change this is to edit the WordPress core but as you know for sure this is not something we can do.

The only solution is to avoid duplicating existing posts and instead create fresh ones for each of your video posts

Please delete your posts of episodes 2, 3, 4, … and create them by going on Posts -> Add New then add the correct video to each post.

All these problems are related only to a WordPress core bug together with the fact that you cloned your original post to create the new ones and unfortunately has nothing to do with the theme. So this suggestion is all can we do to fix your problem.

Let me know if this work for you.
Kind Regards
