I get the same (or similar?) error with ncspot while fetching a playlist with a single podcast episode added by spotify web interface:

Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduced this issue, as I was unable to add local file to Spotify by following this guide: https://support.spotify.com/us/article/local-files/, neither mp3 or wov file works.

Would you able to provide the JSON return from the Spotify Server which caused the above error, so I could debug without manully adding the file.

I've just tried it again with the same playlist containing the local track and it's working now. Thanks!
