What separates a group of Birmingham Rollers from a true championship team? In this episode, Rick Mee returns to the show to break down the advanced principles behind breeding, training, feeding, and managing competition rollers. We discuss why teamwork matters more than individual performers, how family breeding influences kit performance, the role of feed and conditioning before competition, and why flying your birds too often can actually hurt their performance. Whether you're just getting started or chasing a World Cup qualification, this episode is packed with practical insights from one of the most respected voices in the roller hobby.

In this episode, Phillip sits down with artist and pigeon advocate Tina "Mother Pigeon" Pina to discuss her unique approach to changing public perception of one of the world's most misunderstood birds. Through handmade pigeon sculptures, public art installations, puppet shows, children's programs, and her unforgettable street performances, Mother Pigeon has become one of the most recognizable voices for pigeon advocacy.

The conversation covers everything from New York City's feeding restrictions and public attitudes toward pigeons to creative activism, educating children, using humor instead of anger, and even the surprisingly entertaining idea behind her growing "Pigeon Religion."

Whether you're a longtime pigeon fancier or simply curious about why these birds inspire such passion, this episode offers a fresh perspective on compassion, creativity, and standing up for animals that rarely have someone speaking on their behalf.
