    141. A New Flyer’s Journey Into the Pigeon Hobby

    27/05/2026 | 39 mins.
    In this episode of the All About Pigeons Podcast, Phillip sits down with Joshua Toy, a brand new pigeon flyer doing something truly unique: keeping and flying pigeons from a rooftop loft in Philadelphia.
    Joshua shares the challenges of getting started in the hobby without club connections, building and rebuilding rooftop lofts, dealing with predators in the city, harsh winter weather, breeding issues, and learning through trial and error. From homing pigeons to Archangels and Old German Owls, this conversation dives into what it’s really like being a beginner pigeon keeper trying to figure things out in an urban environment.
    The episode also explores the importance of pigeon clubs, online communities, old pigeon literature, predator proofing, rooftop loft design, and the excitement of eventually free flying birds in the city skyline.
    Joshua also talks about his rooftop pigeon livestream project, Dove Love Loft, where viewers can follow along with his growing flock and loft journey.
    A great episode for new flyers, rooftop pigeon enthusiasts, and anyone interested in urban pigeon keeping.

    140. Pigeon Policies with Bill Weima

    13/05/2026 | 38 mins.
    Returning guest Bill Weima joins the All About Pigeons Podcast for an important discussion about pigeon policies, bylaws, and regulations affecting pigeon fanciers across North America.
    Bill shares his firsthand experience dealing with municipal enforcement in Ontario, Canada, where local officials attempted to classify racing pigeons as livestock under zoning regulations. We discuss how these policies impact the hobby, why pigeon keepers need to stay informed, and the importance of education, community outreach, and working together to protect the future of pigeon keeping.
    This episode covers everything from backyard pigeon regulations and feeding bans to public perception, legal challenges, and proactive ways pigeon fanciers can help preserve the hobby for future generations.
    Whether you race pigeons, raise fancy breeds, or simply love the hobby, this is a conversation every pigeon person should hear.

    138. Inside the Bloodlines: Gene Giegoldt and the History of Birmingham Rollers

    29/04/2026 | 31 mins.
    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.
