Under Google settings, Google Assistant, News, a long time ago I selected 5 or 6 news podcasts to play from a very long list of shows. Now when I click on "add shows" it only shows me the original podcasts I selected. What happened to that long "master list" of shows? I'd like to be able to add to the 5 or 6 I've selected.
I.e. In the attached screenshot, there should be tons of business podcasts to choose from but it's only showing the one I selected.

I'm not sure what's going on, maybe a glitch with Google since they rearranged a lot of settings when they released the newer Rules functionality? I see a lot of Business news sources when I go to the same screen. Have you restarted your phone recently, maybe it needs a reboot?

Just tried a reboot...no luck. Just the same few sources that I've already selected. Your screen is obviously how it should look.
 
I wonder if I'm the only one with this issue.
My wife went into the Google app on her iPhone and was able to see lots of news sources.
 
You could try clearing that app cache, reboot and see if it helps.

Just tried that on my Lenovo tablet...no luck. Here's a screenshot.

I thought you were trying to pick these from a phone? You are trying this from a tablet?

I've tried both. My P4xl and my Lenovo tab. There must be something wrong in my Google account since the device doesn't matter...neither one shows additional news shows.

If that is the case, just your account on multiple devices, it might be time to contact Google's customer support.
