Okay, so I built my own XML RSS feed; however, after getting all of the bugs out of the code I'm still getting errors when I try to validate my XML;
http://www.swapitencryptit.com/rss.xml
This feed does not validate.
*
line 38, column 0: Missing channel element: description [help]
</channel>
*
line 38, column 0: Missing channel element: link [help]
</channel>
*
line 38, column 0: Missing channel element: title [help]
</channel>
In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendation.
*
line 38, column 0: Missing atom:link with rel="self" [help]
</channel>
And here's a copy of the XML source code:

Ps. In return I'm willing to give the person that helps me a free file transfer coupon that will be good for unlimited file transfers up to 2 Gb in size and the coupon will be good for a month.
