From the guy who brought us multiple shield master rulings that contradict each other and all sorts of other stuff one couldn't possibly derive from a plain reading of the rules including this. Hard pass.According to Jeremy Crawford, a character's Passive Perception is a floor for their Perception.
Edit: The podcast you're quoting by the way is discussing this in the context of a creature hiding from another creature who is situationally aware, particularly as it relates to combat. It doesn't apply to other situations involving a Wisdom (Perception) check or passive check.
