My relationship with James M. King III, Otaku Builder, began before I even launched my Instagram page. I actually found his trek build on YouTube, where he's been posting for almost a decade.
Otaku Builder's primary subject is Gundam/Gunpla. Though I'm not into that part of Sci-Fi Model making, his model making skills drew me in.
Eventually I made my way over to instagram and we connected, through a mutual appreciation for one another's work.
When I began the process of launching The Sci-Fi Model Podcast, James was top of mind when it came to having guests/recurring contributors.
Now, I'm all about breaking barriers and preventing gate keeping. As such the podcast, recently, has focused on subjects that some would not consider Sci-Fi. However, I believe that Warhammer/war gaming, anime, etc falls under the Sci-Fi banner. Since Otaku Builder has done multiple crossovers (Gundam to Trek and back again) he seemed like the ideal person to talk to about the overlap in genres.
Because it's a conversation between friends, we deviate a bit and talk about the various pieces of pop culture we enjoy/had an impact on our childhoods.
I hope you enjoy episode 7 of The Sci-Fi Model Podcast
