Season 8 episode 6

featuring Miles McAlpin aka Sir Collect-a-Lot

Miles joins me once again on the JayyPod Bonecast, and at this point he's on his way to earning Spotify Playlist status with nearly four appearances on the show! Jokes aside, Miles has been with us since the beginning, as you'll hear in this episode, and it's been amazing watching his journey unfold.

His work is creative, hilarious, and genuinely impressive. We dive into what goes on behind the scenes when it comes to collaborations, making deals, and building projects with other creators. We also spend some time talking about fatherhood and how becoming a dad has completely changed his life. Hearing him talk about that transformation was something special, and I can't wait to see how that journey continues to grow. The bond between a parent and child is truly one of life's greatest gifts.

As if that wasn't enough, Miles a man of many talents recently released a children's book on Amazon called Where Ya Goin', Rowan? I thought it was so cool that I had to pick up a copy for my niece. Not only is it a wonderful story, but knowing it was inspired by and created for his son makes it even more meaningful. It's a beautiful book that encourages imagination, something every child has in abundance.

We also talk about the future of AI, the evolution of memes and internet culture, and Miles shares some great insight into what goes into creating toys and collectibles from a genuine creative perspective.
