All About Pigeons

In this episode, I sit down with Gene Giegoldt, the NBRC’s Band Secretary and Pedigree Historian. He has spent a lifetime collecting breeding records, tracking bloodlines, and preserving a piece of roller history that most people never get to see.
We talk about how he got started, what those old school breeders were really like, and how things have changed over the years. Along the way, Gene shares stories from decades in the hobby and gives a real look at what pedigrees mean and why they still matter today.
If you have ever wondered where your birds come from or what is behind the names in a pedigree, this is a conversation worth hearing.

In this episode I sit down with Kevin Miller from the Racing Pigeon Podcast and get into how his journey in birds led him straight into pigeon racing and eventually into podcasting. Kevin started out raising parrots and running a full-scale bird business before stepping away and later finding his way into racing pigeons.
We talk about what it was like getting started in the hobby, learning from top flyers, and how quickly things can take off when you find the right mentors. Kevin shares how the idea for his podcast came together, what he is trying to build with it, and the challenges that come with growing something in a niche like pigeons.
This is a good one if you are new to racing pigeons or if you have been around the hobby for a while and want to hear how someone else came up through it. There is a lot in here about growth, learning, and finding ways to bring more people into the pigeon world.

In this episode of the All About Pigeons podcast, we sit down with Justin Thompson, president of the Electric City Pigeon Racing Club in Montana, to talk about what it really takes to bring a pigeon club back to life.
Justin walks through how he rebuilt a club that had been inactive for over 20 years, starting with just a handful of local flyers and growing it into an active racing group. From tracking down pigeon keepers one by one, to fundraising, organizing meetings, and getting set up with the AU, this episode is packed with real, practical insight for anyone who wants to start something in their own area.
We also get into club culture, what helps a club grow, what causes them to fail, and how to bring new people into the hobby the right way. Whether you are in an active club or feel like you are the only pigeon person in your area, this episode will give you ideas and motivation to take that next step.
If you have ever thought about starting a pigeon club, this is the episode for you.

In this episode of the All About Pigeons podcast, host Phillip Fry sits down with Michael Shirley, club secretary of the Nashville Racing Pigeon Club, to talk about something that is quickly making its way into the pigeon world. Artificial intelligence.
From record keeping and breeding decisions to race planning and club administration, Michael shares real hands-on ways he is already using AI in his own loft and within his club. This is not theory. This is practical use that is saving time and changing how things get done.
They get into
Using AI to inventory birds and build organized records instantly
Analyzing race and training data to identify top breeding pairs
Planning race series and release points using GPS and data
Using AI for club meetings notes and administrative tasks
Finding guest speakers and resources in seconds
The pros and cons of AI in the hobby
Whether AI creates an unfair advantage or is just another tool
They also get into the bigger conversation about what happens if pigeon racing does not adapt to technology and how AI could play a role in attracting the next generation into the hobby.
This episode keeps it real. AI is not perfect. It is not always right. It is only as good as the information you give it. But when used correctly, it can be a powerful tool that saves time and opens up new possibilities.
Whether you are completely against AI or already experimenting with it, this is a conversation that is happening right now in the pigeon world and one you do not want to miss.
