How do I ask Siri to play CNN?

I am not able to get Siri to play CNN on my HomePod Mini. All I get is the CNN podcast “The 5 things you need to know”. In the Music app on my iPhone I can find CNN from Audacy and from iHeartRadio. I also installed the TuneIn app which also offers CNN. I am sure there is a way to play a CNN station, but how?

Siri selects wrong radio station Whenever I want to play 'Radio Veronica' on my HomePod, Siri will play '192 Radio Veronica' which is a different radio station. I am able to select and stream it from TuneIn on my phone to the HomePod and every so often she decides to honour my request directly on the HomePod but most of the time she plays the wrong station. Would it be very difficult to let me configure pre-set radio stations? Or block certain radio stations? Also, I've read previous answers to the same question from other users. And yes, I have updated/restarted etc. And I use the full official name for the TuneIn station. And no, I cannot create a scene as that requires an Apple Music subscription.

Sorry, there was a problem with Apple Podcasts - Homepod When asking Siri for my update, she fails to play the latest news and says “Sorry, there was a problem with Apple Podcasts”. This happens on Homepod and on iPhone. I’m in Canada and used to have CTV as my news source, which seems to be causing the problem. On iphone, it shows that the Newsflash episode is no longer available. When I ask Siri to change my news to CNN for example, she confirms the change but then tries to play CTV again when I ask for my update. Any help is appreciated.

Why does siri think I don't have Apple Podcasts loaded when I do? Now all of sudden, when I ask Siri to play a podcast it tells me I don't have Apple Podcast loaded but I do. Frustrating and dangerous when driving as I don't want to go back to manually have to play podcasts. Any ideas?
