Question are podcasts included in item counts?

[khers]

gonic version: v0.16.4

if from docker, docker tag: latest if from source, git tag/branch: NA

I am looking into a mismatch between album and track counts between gonic and a client pointed at my gonic instance. This client does not support podcasts so I do not interact with them via this api. Are podcasters/channels/episodes included in the counts for artists/albums/tracks?

For reference, my client sees 1148 albums but gonic reports 1206 and my client sees 11538 tracks and gonic reports 12254 songs. The differences are not completely explained by podcast channels and episodes but it is pretty close.
