Well, I've never thought podcasts on YouTube really counted as podcasts. Same as how I don't consider podcasts on Spotify to be podcasts. One is a video show. The other is an audio show.
Podcasts, as I see them, are available to everyone via RSS, an open standard. If there's additional content behind a private feed for money, that's acceptable to me. But anything that 100% lives only on a specific service is not a podcast.
(I realize that many podcasts that have videos on YouTube also distribute audio eps via RSS. I'm sorta neutral on that, but only begrudgingly because I can see the argument that the video is offering "more" to people who want it.)
