Measuring Horses’ Hind Ends (For Science!)

from Touched By A Horse

In this warm and wide-ranging episode, Melisa and Dane reunite in the studio to share personal updates, including celebrating the birth of their assistant Tana’s baby boy, Atticus. They dive into a fascinating bit of trivia tracing the standard railroad gauge—four feet, eight and a half inches—back to Roman war chariots and the width of two horses, exploring how ancient history still influences modern engineering. Melisa also introduces the new Touched by a Horse Wisdom Circle community, details her upcoming “Ology” course on human and equine typology, and shares a few lighthearted ranch updates—from the hunt for a round baler to hockey road trips and shifting winter weather.
