On both my iPhone and iPad running latest public betas for iOS/iPadOS 13, I keep getting nagged about a site called my.punchbowl.com, which to my knowledge I don't use. It seems to be an online invitation site and I did find a few emails from like ten years ago, that I manually deleted. But even after the email deletions, I keep getting the nag. When I click on the dialogue box to continue, nothing ever happens. When I click dismiss, it does just that, dismisses the dialogue box. How can I make it stop?

Sounds like you have an app for it installed, and that's it trying to background refresh and hitting a bad SSL chain. Search in spotlight to see if it's hidden away somewhere.

Thanks, I have checked and double checked both my iPhone and iPad and I don't have any invite apps, let alone this punchbowl app. I did find 1-2 old emails where invitations were issued from that site but I long deleted them. The problem persists. Here is a screenshot of the bug.

Check what calendars you have subscribed to. With a site like punchbowl, it's possible you subscribed to a calendar so that events would show up automatically.

Eureka! That was it. It turned out to be a calendar from the Obama campaign circa 2008 that has long been dormant. Hopefully that will solve it. I will report back later to see if the error goes away.
