Speaker 1 (00:00):
Also on TikTok this weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
I was very attached to and I'm curious if you
guys have found yourselves watching anything on TikTok that you
have never thought you'd have an interest in whatsoever, like
a subject matter that never mattered to you. On Friday,
I discovered there was a horse that gave birth to
a baby boy horse.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
I think it was a boy.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
It was a boy horse, I think, And apparently I
didn't know this, but there's a chance when the horse
has when horses have babies and they're pregnant for like
a year. Oh apparently, or at least this one was
the horse. And I don't know all the horse terms,
but the horse could look over the fence and see
another baby horse and became attached to that baby horse

(00:43):
and didn't want its own horse, which I guess is
a normal thing. That the horse would give birth to
another horse and then reject it and not allow it
to feed. Well, it's a problem because it won't. It
won't let It's not funny, Caitlin, because you won't. You
won't let the horse eat milk because it doesn't like it.
It doesn't like its own horse. It rejects its own offspring,

(01:04):
and so then they have to go on either they
have to manually feed it for to live, or they
have to go get another mom horse and hope that
the mom horse wants that horse. I didn't realize this though,
that moms would give birth to a little baby and
then not want it and then just pretend like it,
like reject it and be mean to it.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
We see what cry?

Speaker 2 (01:23):
So all right, right, so all weekend I'm watching because
they're trying everyone.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Why is this funny? It's not.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
The first laugh that I gave was to you because
you said it's a problem, Like, well, I would say,
so that's rejecting its own child.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
It was just very like, well, yeah, I think there
is a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
And I know I'm laughing at our sweet mother in
here who's crying, because.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yeah, because I was almost crying and it's hard for
me to cry. Well, I have good news for you.
Well after three days, well it's good, so you can
stop crying. After three days of this, lady, the owner
of the horse like trying to make them like each other,
mom horse decided to like the little baby horse, and
now everything is okay.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
I wouldn't trust that mom like I want to go
in and take care of that baby and tell that
baby you're kind, you're smart, you're important of you. Yep,
your mind, Like I will go feed that horse my month.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
You might have a horse then as as a horse child.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Because if this is a problem, like, can't we start
like a charity that like takes in the rejected horses.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Well, I don't think and give them love. I don't
think it's that.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I think they need another horse to give them love
because they need the milk from the horse.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
You don't know what I'm caring about formula.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, yeah, Well I'll let you tell me if you're
capable of producing horse milk, that's what that would be
for you to tell me enough for me to joke about.
It's a very mean thing to say to someone.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Well kill and I'll handle it.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
So whatever, this doesn't bother you at all, Kiki, you're
just silence over Here is a horse mom that didn't
want the horse, now it wants the horse.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Everything's fine, get rejected every day.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
It was very sad, and I know there's postpartument all
kinds of things, but can you People in the comments
were talking about how this happened to them with their
own child briefly at first where they had a baby
and they were like, oh god, they were repulsed by
their own and then luckily, like their maternal instincts came in.
But it was all psychological. Had nothing to do with
like having an ugly baby or something. It was all mental.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
What well.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
It was like they had an ugly baby and they
were like, I don't want this one. It was like
this weird thing where and I don't you know. Again,
these are TikTok comments, so who knows. But I was
very worried about that. I was very worried about this.
I was very sad the horse, like mean, it was
like biting its own kid. But it was all because
it was attached to another horse that could see in
another stable and so they were anyway, I don't know,

(03:40):
but there was a it was a human lady that
I don't know what she did, but like she fed
it for twenty four straight hours and kept it alive
because it will die if it doesn't eat. It needs
the sustenance of its mother to survive. And so I'm
watching this like I'm checking in like almost every hour
on the horse. And then finally it was good news.
You never watch stuff like I don't know anything about horses.

(04:01):
I know nothing about horses.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah, I watched the videos where they clean the horses.
What do they love their feet?

Speaker 2 (04:08):
There's so much dirt in there, and yeah, that's what
I watched. That's that's wow. This mom wasn't doing that
for this baby. I didn't care who.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Was the mom of the horse that was like down
yonder that the mom a horse fell in love.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
There were people, there were amateur horse experts in the
comments going well, can you just swap them? Like, can
you like, can you give that the horse that the
mom that's obsessed with the horse but it's not hers.
Can you just say, okay, you go with that one
and then the other mom. Maybe the other mom will
just take in the one that no one likes or
that the mom doesn't like. Maybe, but I guess you

(04:43):
can't do that. I don't know. But then what I say,
and then of course it's because my algorithm. But then
I saw apparently girl, I am a horse girl. I'm
totally a horse girl. But I think it was a squirrel.
I didn't know that if a squirrel loses its mom
that you can get like a baby squirrel. You can
try and give the baby squirrel to another squirrel mom

(05:04):
and and she might take it in as her own,
like adopt it. So like this couple found like a
like basically an infant infant infant like just born little
like they would like all pink and almost seat through.
A little squirrel on the grind was alive and she
didn't know what to do with it, so just tried
like feet and keep it alive with her for like
a dair two and did. And then she went out

(05:24):
and found another squirrel like that had babies and held
it out and saw if the mom squirrel would come
and take it. It wasn't hers, and so she kind of
looked at it and looked at it. All of a
sudden just grabs out of her hand and then takes it.
Now we don't know what happened next, but I mean
we were assuming that she raise it into you know,
put it through college and everything, you know what I mean,

(05:44):
or assuming everything's going great, you know, PhD and everything,
Like what.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Was she checking the squirrel out for? I wonder, Well
the squirrel was checking out the baby?

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Wait was it?

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Well?

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Because I'm sure the squirrel was like, what is in
your hand?

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Like?

Speaker 1 (05:56):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (05:57):
I'm not just taking anything out of anybody hand, Kalin,
I'm not just taking anything on anyone's handing. I look,
I look at least see where my hands are going.
I tried to to avoid any kind of calamity, but
that's it. None of you guys have ever found yourself
on a subject matter on TikTok that had nothing to
do with any of your interest, but you became obsessed.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
I like that hat guy that swifts wood. But I
think we can all understand why I like him.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah, I don't think it has much to do with
the woodworking aspect of it. But I've also started on
my balcony in my condo. I've started cutting wood every day.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yes, yeah, I know it's weird.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Well I have to get to where I look like
him first and then I'll start posting videos. But I
have a lot of wood just stacked up everywhere case
any of you needs some firewood or whatever. Why I mean,
I got to cut something, you know, to look like
that guy chasing nothing.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
I feel like you.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
You and Kiki of all people, I mean Kiki, you
know gets that alert from TikTok all the time, like, hey,
get a life, stop watching our thing.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
I told you, I.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Thought I've watched a lot of TikTok, but I've never
gotten to get a life message before I got.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
This weekend you did.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah huh, but like mine wasn't from scrolling, Like I'm
I watched lives that's all I watch, and like if
you have your life, like I'll just put it on
my iPad and like let it plays. I'm like going
around the house doing my things. And like then it
told me you've been on for too long. I'm like,
but it's just I haven't been doing anything. You went
ground noise.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
I went live over the weekend the plant Live.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, I was really bored, Like made me go to
the greenhouse because you wanted to buy plants. Oh and
it wasn't even like the kind of flowers where like
there's different colors.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
It was just like varieties of green leafs and I'm
like this is so grey. Wow. So I literally went
live in the greenhouse. Did he make you plant them too?

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (07:38):
No, he tried, but I ran away because I'm like,
now that's gonna be your algorithm. It's gonna be planting
or something. Oh God, maybe you'll find yourself watching that.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
My algorithm this weekend was minopause, and I think that's
because Kaylin and I.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Are going through it.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Okay. We were talking about hot flashes on Friday, and
now I keep giving these alerts about minopause, and it's
so embarrassing because I don't want anyone to see me
on a video.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Why were you talking about she was a fan. You
guys are getting hot flashes. We seem awfully young for that.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
We were talking about a real housewife that goes around
town and she always has a fan, and I'm always
have a fan too.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
But we were both saying, like we always get hot
or whatever.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
And now my phone is all about menopause and like
how to avoid hot smashes.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
It's so embarrassing. Well, at least she'll know I don't
want to notice early. Great, we already run warm, right, You've.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Got quite a while until that happens. When you're prepared.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's very embarrassing, you know what's going on?

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
I didn't want to say anything, but I saw you
watching menopause videos and I at work, and I was
I was wondering if everything was okay. Yeah, I was
watching horse videos. You were watching menopause videos. I still
don't believe any of you want up on like look welder,
ticktok or something and watched it.
