That 1st vid is making something that is relatively simple way too complicated.
When he's talking about Gbmaj13 going to Fm9 for example: that's just V7 to i (minor). The Gb7 is a tri-tone or b5 substitution for C7. The notes in the Gb altered chord are mostly the same as in a C7 altered chord - just switched around. This is a super common technique. The Abm6 up to Dm9: The Abm6 is just a Db9 with a 5th in bass. Any dominant chord will sound fine sliding up 1/2 step into a minor (or major) chord. It's what we call leading tone movement. Think about major and (most) minor scales. What's the note just before the root? A 1/2 step below. Moveable harmony like this has been used since the middle ages. The two examples I just mentioned are super common in jazz, fusion and even some the more sophisticated pop music. *Other than the Rick Beato vids, most youtube music theory tutorials are either out right wrong, overly simplified or overly complicated.
