Thus far, there have been many attempts to monetize podcasts, but I have yet to see a success. This is just another attempt. I don’t think it’s going to catch on.

At least Apple isn’t trying to mix them with Music like Spotify or Amazon, or with audiobooks like Audible. Dammit, I already don’t have enough time to listen to music or audiobooks, much less another podcast.

I probably delete 2/3’s of my podcast downloads without listening to them, and of the rest, probably bail on half without getting to the end. I do support my favorites via Patreon, but I don’t want to be tied to a particular platform or app.
