    The way to fix it is to not link to https://backdoorpodcast.com/

    What you’re seeing is entirely normal.

    If someone goes to https://backdoorpodcast.com/ your server has a redirect to force them to the HTTPS version of the site https://backdoorpodcast.com and your server then has a redirect to the www. version so they finally wind up at https://www.backdoorpodcast.com/

    That’s totally normal, so instead of giving out https://backdoorpodcast.com/ as a link to your site, just give out https://www.backdoorpodcast.com/ and then they won’t be going through any redirect.

    Ok but google developers report it as an issue and something that slows down the website

    They are correct, but only when visiting https://backdoorpodcast.com/ so make sure people aren’t visiting that, and definitely make sure you aren’t running any speed tests on that.
