according official itunes podcast specs, category games & hobbies must contain html entity equivalent of ampersand in rss feed. in specific case, use of word "and" rather ampersand not correspond existing itunes category (hence, error in itunes). replace with:

  games &amp; hobbies 

additionally, take account video games sub category of games & hobbies, correct sintax itunes category tags in podcast rss feed is:

<itunes:category text="games &amp; hobbies"> <itunes:category text="video games" /> </itunes:category>
