Just wanna say that there's no such thing as a "video podcast". You can have a video. You can have a podcast. You can have both, but you cannot have a "video podcast". I will die on this hill.
Also this guy actually had a podcast but abandoned it late last year. Presumably because they couldn't monetize it properly. This is exactly the kinda bullshit that we're seeing more and more, and why I'm calling this out.
Please don't support channels like this. Please stop calling it a "video podcast". It's just a video interview.
Semantics. A podcast is and was something that was typically long format akin to a talk show - that was something that could be listened to without requiring you to watch it. It is not audio exclusive. Many radio shows may and do have video feeds but that does not prevent them from being called radio shows.
Again semantics. You are attempting to split hairs based on distribution opposed to type. This is like being a pedant over someone referring to tissues as a Kleenex despite it not being that particular brand. Podcasts were ambiguous back when they were still new, too.
Shoutcast servers were/hosted digital broadcasts. Podcasts were containerized (aka offline) recordings of these. You could argue that calling a live show a podcast is technically incorrect: but thanks to language continuing to adapt to its environment... You'd actually just be out of date or misinformed.
Not sure what your point is? The technology and the name was popularized by Apple, not Google. If Google had done it, they could have just as well called it that and it would make no tangible difference.
And Wikipedia says video podcasts exist so I'm not sure what you're trying to get at.
Are you aware that Wikipedia is also user-editable? I don't care what Wikipedia says, use your brain.
Ask yourself what is a podcast? Why is it not called "radio"? Why is it not called "video"? Are all podcasts audio interviews? Apply some basic sense here. Watch the old videos from when Steve Jobs introduced it and listen to how he described it.
Then cite the sources, there's no reason to use Wikipedia as an unnecessary middleman.
Cites dictionaries
Once again I'm going to ask you to appeal to a sense of logic and reason instead of authority. These definitions make zero sense.
For example your second source says "downloaded over the internet" and since YouTube doesn't allow you to download videos, YT videos would be omitted from that definition.
I don't really think that's a great word either. If you break down "podcast", pod = iPod, obvi, because that's how they were originally played back. "Cast" (as in "broadcast") suggests the method of distribution across the web (RSS).
You don't need to reinvent a new word for every type of video. They're just called videos. If you wanted to be more specific you could call it a "video interview", as I alluded to above.
And I would argue that language "evolution" is fucking stupid if all meaning is stripped from the words, as it has been here. Language "evolves" because lazy people allow it to. The whole purpose of a language is to create a common understanding of communication. If that definition is eroded to the extent that there is no longer a common understanding, that is not evolution, that is devolution.
It also abused by many to intentionally conflate meanings to fit an agenda.
