Not gonna lie very few teachers from my experience have the charisma in their teaching that an experienced Podcaster has on a topic.

I've had a couple for sure who I could listen for hours teach.

But many would just rattle off facts endlessly and wouldn't really engage.

to be fair, a podcaster only has to engage in the topic once, imagine repeating the same thing for years 6h+ every day

Also, a live performance in front of a hostile audience has special challenges.

This is what has not been leveraged by almost any learning institution! The people that are explaining a concept to students for the first time and people who are good at answering questions while the student is practicing/digesting the information do not need to be the same people! This is how you increase the efficiency of education, you specialize roles.
