Wow, that's a pretty content-free "discussion". Definition by single example, followed by an obscure reference to building up then tearing down the stack, ...

Pretty poor, really. If you think that aids "understanding recursion" or will help you in an interview, I think you're very much mistaken.

Yeah, it was quite poor on details and explanation of what goes on. Drawbacks are barely explain anymore than "It fills up memory".

While recursion in some languages sucks, not all languages are like that and most jobs want experience in more than one language.
