Just googled our show and a couple of them come up on google search.
However, across the top of the videos is a pink bar that says invalid
arguments. What exactly does this mean? Also, how did these videos get
entered in the google search to begin with? If anyone could answer we
would appreciate it. Thank you! This is not on the videos on the
youtube site. Just the ones pulled up on the google search.

Not sure about the error message, but just about everything on the net
can be indexed by Google (and most search engines, in fact).
Search engines work by "crawling" the web, which means that they visit
pages they already know exist, and look for links to other pages. Any
link on those pages is fair game to a search engine, as long as the
page it points to isn't password protected. This includes all the
links to "related videos" on YouTube.
For example, the Googlebot might visit my website (because Google
already knows about it) one day and find a link I recently posted to
one of my own videos. So the bot follows that link, and finds loads of
other links. One of them is, say, to the channel profile of somebody
who commented on my video; on that page, the bot follows a link to one
of that person's favourited videos, which is a response to yet another
video, and in the "related videos" box on that video is one of your
own videos.
By such complicated means, a search engine can index almost the entire
public internet.
