Research: Import an episode from another feed

one question I am wondering about: Megaphone had an option to 'import' an episode from another podcast to functionally co-publish it to multiple feeds, and all of the metrics would roll into the parent/source podcast episode. Is there an equivalent function on Dovetail? Just wondering!

Seconded by Jeanne, referenced TED

Here's how Megaphone does it:

In a Publish to Feeder walkthrough, Snap Judgement asked if they could "republish" an older episode from their feed. I think we can consider this as a use case here.

An old ep from the same podcast? I think we generally recommend to TED and others that they create a brand new episode, and give it a new guid. Unless the intention here is they don't want the bump from a new episode guid drop?

I think its more a thing of "Help me rebuild this episode really quickly" so they don't need to reupload audio if they don't want to. Maybe a "duplicate episode" function? Which would be a different ticket.
