My experience is that the episode medals are eventually converted to regular medals some time after the event has ended. Usually it has been a couple days for the conversion to regular medals. They can be used during the next episode, but they are regular gold medals, not episode medals, so I don't believe you have the chance at getting any of the episode specific cards.
