After further research, there *is* an issue streaming CBS All Access with PiHole active.  The work around for this is to whitelist the two FQDN&#8217;s below.

I&#8217;ll post more about my PiHole setup later, but tonight I realized that &#8220;CBS All Access&#8221; and YouTube TV apps on our Roku weren&#8217;t streaming content with PiHole enabled.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt\">I didn&#8217;t have time to narrow down the root cause, but I&#8217;ll investigate this over the weekend. I will note the issue probably started last week, but tonight it was a non-starter when we attempted to stream &#8220;CBS Sunday Morning&#8221;, Jeopardy, and &#8220;Chasing Classic Cars&#8221; (Motor Trend).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt\">\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UPDATE \u2013 there was a widespread two hour (or so) outage for YouTube and YouTube TV when I posted the original article.
