  • Fun listen

    The podcast is a fun listen. I appreciate his willingness to learn about other dolls. My only critique is that it takes a while to get into the episode/topic. I have to play it on 2x to get thought it.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

ALL MY PLASTIC CHILDREN
Q: What makes smart dolls different from traditional dolls, and what drew you to them specifically?
Smart dolls offer interchanging hands, customizable features, and a high level of posability that makes photography and character play easier and more expressive than traditional dolls, which is especially appealing for collectors who value display and storytelling.
ALL MY PLASTIC CHILDREN
Q: How did you two start collecting together and what drew you to dolls as a couple?
We both have long histories with dolls, and over time we discovered that our tastes aligned across vintage, modern artist, and ultimately smart dolls, which let us explore both the artistic and collaborative aspects of collecting.
Doll & Toy Design
Q: What's the best advice you could give someone who wanted to pursue a career like yours?
Pursue formal, reputable toy design education (like Otis) or related art disciplines, build a portfolio that looks like real toy work, and seek internships at top studios to get hands-on experience and industry mentorship.
Doll Couture: Interview with Author Kenneth D. King
Q: How are you doing?
Kenneth responds that he's doing well, discusses his excitement for the book, and reflects on the journey of publishing and promoting the work.
The Whimsey of Barbie Collecting
Q: How did you first get into collecting Barbie dolls?
I fell in love with Barbie as a kid and later found a vibrant community online that helped me grow from casual collecting to a more serious passion.
