Podcasts that can't be

According to the guide (https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/adding-a-new-title/GNXTSSVTJTFCRZGN?ref_=helpsrall#year) podcasts were invented in 2004 and no podcasts can be added from before that date. However, there are currently 201 titles with the title type Podcast series from before 2004: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=podcast_series&release_date=,2003-12-31 Can a staffer look into this please? I think they should all be deleted, but I'm no expert on either podcasts nor radio shows and I haven't checked all 201 of them, so I'm not a 100% sure. Luckily, it hasn't been possible for quite some time for contributors to add new podcast series from before 2004: https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/blocking-tv-shows-that-cant-be-that-old/5f4a79f28815453dba91e84c?commentId=63ee7d0fa5589135ff2b7c18&replyId=64aedf76c59d8813293d0f01

Some are audiobooks and are eligible, but IMDb has not set up a title type for them. Some are podcasts from radio shows and have been added with radio dates.

"The Jesse Lee Peterson Show" started in 1991 as both a local TV show and a radio show. Now it's a streaming series on YouTube and other platforms, and is available in podcast form.
