145. Mother Pigeon
About this episode
Phillip interviews artist and pigeon advocate Tina Pina about her efforts to change public perception of pigeons through various creative means.
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. https://www.instagram.com/motherpigeonbrooklyn/ www.pigeonpod.com Hashtags #AllAboutPigeons #Pigeons #MotherPigeon #PigeonAdvocacy #PigeonPodcast #BirdPodcast #BirdLovers #UrbanWildlife #WildlifeConservation #AnimalAdvocacy #PigeonArt…
