Apple Podcast Categories have changed again (2019)

[njh]

The Apple Podcast Categories have changed again.

When checking a BBC Podcast RSS feed:
http://www.feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpodcasts.files.bbci.co.uk%2Fp05299nl.rss

I am seeing errors like:

• Government is not one of the predefined iTunes categories or sub-categories
• News is an obsolete iTunes category or sub-category

I have created a Spreadsheet listing the new categories, based on the iTunes API:
