Nah, you'll be fine.
As long as the blog owners won't come running to you LOL

Yes youtube. That's what I thought. I wanted to do the same because it saves money on buying scripts lol but don't think would be a good idea for long term

Is that against the rules?
Can the video owner file a DMCA? Because if that haplens your domain will take a hit and ranking might drop for other pages as well.Or you can transcribe the video and make blog posts about it. That's what I did with a video that had 100 views and now I get 1k daily visits to that single post each day
I wouldn't risk it, it's straight up plagiarism. If they find out and file a content ID claim your channel is done.
I'd suggest heavily rewording the content and listing it as a source in your video description.

Just to be safe, it's not recommended to copy words by words as if the blog owner finds your videos, then there is a chance you may get in trouble, especially if you have got a lot of views. So it's better to rewrite the content before doing the voiceover.

It's not a direct transcript, like literally word by word.
Think of like listening to an expert and then spinning an article out of that. Lots of tech/finance 1mil+ YouTubers do that with tech/finance articles and they don't even put a disclaimer of the copied content. Once one of them got caught and just apologized and kept doing it.

Are your blog posts on web 2.0s or is it your own private blog?

Not sure what you mean by private. Like on the .onion layer?
Just your regular wp hosted blog with $8 .com domain and that's all. Aren't all blogs like that?
