    I tnink you dont use Google Webmaster Tools.
    Create a good sitemap.xml and upload it GWT.
    You may have problem with copyright too.

    Google is updating datacenters. I had a site drop out of the index four days ago and it returned in a better position late yersterday evening.

    BTW, for your keyword you are ranking at positions:

    207 - watchentourage(dot)com/episode/1
    208 - watchentourage(dot)com/episode/14

    Be patient, your site will come back in a few days.

    My site had been in number 8 then number 7 positions, previously it was 3-4. I really hope it will bounce back.

    I think these changes are temporary and your rankings will return to normal within
    a few weeks, this is something that usually happens with new sites.

    My sites fluctuate a lot too.
    Let's hope it is only temporary!

    It seems to be regular nowadays, doesn't seem to stop as in previous cases. Quite difficult to catch up with the SERPs.

    Index has become faster and more random since they started on their everdance ... as compared to their previous periodic dances in the past .. so dont worry and continue to build good links
