Summary:
Podcast episode titles with ampersands appear to be cut off in the Podcast app. This appears to be a new iOS 9 issue since older versions of the Podcast app did not have this issue.

Characters before the "&" character is missing. Characters after the ampersand displays correctly.

Other podcast apps such as Pocket Casts display episode titles with ampersands correctly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Subscribe to a show with ampersands in the episode titles (e.g. http://podcasts.todaynetwork.com.au/rss/labby-stav-and-abby-show.rss)
2. Go to Feed listing
3. Titles of episodes with ampersands will be cut off

Expected Results:
The title of episodes should display in full
"STAV & ABBY - SEPTEMBER MONDAY 28"

Actual Results:
The title of the episode is cut off before the ampersand
"& ABBY - SEPTEMBER MONDAY 28"
