This seems like a particularly strange interpretation, but I'll have to give a listen to the podcast to see what is meant. (sounds interesting anyway)
The idea is strange because it would seem to propose either that Gygax = D&D or Arneson somehow invented a new game on the car ride to Lake Geneva.
What Gygax played was a Blackmoor game - two actually if you count Megarry's Dungeon as part of that.
