I have encountered the above panic situation recently. This happens after a long while that podsync was not turned on. After podsync is turned back on, it tries to download >50 youtube video and to convert them to high-res audio.

This panic situation happens randomly after a certain number of youtube video has been downloaded and converted. I put down below part of the log:
