Welcome guys to the best Pat podcast you'll ever heard.
The best Pat podcast?
Yeah.
Oh jeez.
It's crazy.
No way we have a button to restart it.
Nope.
So this is the Technically Short podcast.
Oh I like that.
Technically Short.
Like Tech Guy in Short.
Yep.
Did you make that up?
I already told you about it.
What?
I didn't remember.
So awesome.
Yeah.
Technically Short.
Thomas Edward Carney.
Tech.
Wow.
And this.
Never mind you.
Honestly when I think about that, like me and you have the same middle name in itself
is already crazy.
Yeah.
It's interesting.
So yeah.
So I'm Thomas.
I'm Sean.
And yeah this is just our intro episode to the Technically Short podcast.
We, our friend and pastor, Pastor Ed joked to me about this podcast a while ago and said
that we could literally talk about anything and he would listen.
So Ed you better be listening.
I think it's going to do well.
Honestly people love me and you.
It's like silver and gold.
It's like peanut butter and jelly.
You can't live with your life without having a taste.
That sound is so weird.
I don't know.
If you're listening to this first episode you already know who we are because I, yeah,
this is our first episode.
It's not, first episodes actually.
This is the where the preps time.
It's awesome.
Yeah.
We are not editing this at all.
We're not.
This is just going to be the raw uncut audio going out to whatever podcast verse we send
it out to and we mainly because we don't have the capacity.
Honestly I think it's going to do really well.
I see a lot of people getting to know the fire within.
Oh jeez.
That's going to be so loud that I wish I was editing it because you just like destroyed
people's ear drums.
The fire within.
I talked so so maybe it might not hurt to show that.
You're good.
We already found out that you're good.
So yeah, the point of this episode is like an intro to who I am, to shine is why we're
doing it.
You already know who we are but we're going to talk about it anyway.
Yeah.
Honestly I think a lot of people can grow from hearing you Thomas and a lot of people will
definitely grow from hearing both of us and the stories that we go through on these broadcasts
will be amazing.
So stay tuned.
Be exciting.
You are in for a treat.
Sean is the number one hype man.
I try.
So yeah, I already told you where the preemptive start of this happened where Ed kind of just
jokingly said it to me like months ago but then we've been, ever since I mentioned it
to Sean we've been joking about it ever since.
So anytime we would have a 30 minute conversation about any nonsensical thing we were like yeah
that should go on a podcast.
That would be a great podcast episode.
And so now we're doing it.
I think it's awesome.
Honestly because the way we're about to do this is going to be incredible because of
the fact.
It's literally like two amazing brains that are like opposite at times parallel at other
times intersecting at times, seeing different controversial fun all type of different types
of thoughts.
So like give a bit of a background of yourself and who you are.
Okay.
Quick background of myself.
I'm 31 years old.
I encountered God from an early age probably from the age of five and from five to nineteen
lived a pretty Christian life.
Nineteen through twenty nine lived a mediocre ungodly life.
Semi, knew who Jesus was still but like I was just doing the unstoppable and the uncourageable
and all the horrible things.
But then twenty nine, prodigal son returns and now I'm here.
Thirty one living the good life of God and main focus is God but everything else has
been blessed because of that.
And that's the quickest summary I can tell you.
I've played sports.
I did football, did track.
I was too scared to play baseball for a while so not play softball.
But before I was a little nervous about that because seeing somebody get hurt early in
life.
So that's the quick intro of my life.
It's going to get a little crazier during more of deep dark conversations.
Okay.
Clearly we have not prepped at all for this because him and I have no, we're just, we'll
figure out what we're going to talk about when we're talking about it.
Honestly, I think that's the best way because it's raw.
It's raw all that way.
Well, definitely I'm more of a prep person.
So this is just, this is brand new to me.
I'm definitely going to be prepping more for other episodes in the future.
They're a very like, like bullet point like button.
But like just so we have core topics on what to talk on.
Honestly, it won't be, obviously won't be scripted.
That would be a dumb podcast.
Well, some podcasts are scripted, but this time podcast shouldn't be whatever.
But the, so like.
I agree.
So bullet points and stick into a topic.
So um, yeah, I'll give a little bit of background myself.
So I'm Thomas Carney.
I've with raised, uh, I don't know.
I'll just give background.
Who's how Sean and I even met.
We met through a amplified church here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, specifically in
Plum and we, uh, uh, really didn't know much about each other at all until he moved in.
And, uh, the crowd, you know what, I'm going to tell the story about how you moved in.
Oh, that's crazy.
Because awesome.
Because I know still our perspective.
This is why this podcast, I think it's going to be really good because our perspective
is so bizarre.
It leaves different.
And the, so when, the way we moved in, it was, we all had, we had a, a get together
that happened one time.
At our, at my, currently my place.
Bible study.
It was about a happy one time, uh, for reasons.
And, uh, we, uh, and I, for some reason jokingly said, I think I was jokingly saying that I
would sit, I was like kind of looking, kind of not looking for a roommate.
And I was like, joke.
I forget what Sean said, but I was like, yeah, I know I got a free room upstairs and he just
flat out.
He's like, you free room my lease and at least my lease is over at the end of the month.
Wow.
And I was like, come the Bible, come, come the Bible study, get a place to live, look
at God.
And I was like, what, who are you?
Sounds about right.
Oh man.
And, uh, started, started telling people about how he was moving in before we even talked
about it.
And we, uh, eventually did.
But on, and, uh, we talked about it on a, what was it, a 20 to 30 minute car ride to
your movies?
No, it was to your Walmart.
Was it the one?
Yeah.
It was the Walmart because you had to go to get money out.
Oh yeah.
Before we go to the movies, whatever.
I don't know what we're going to do.
I just know we are driving to Walmart because your fuse is driving to the closer one because
you didn't know how to get there.
You know how to get to the Greensburg one.
Yeah, that's how I probably did only know how to go to the Monk.
No, I know how to go to all of them.
That's good.
That's probably fair.
Oh man.
Um, I don't know.
Yeah.
And we're, we're aiming to have these podcasts be about 30 minutes long.
Uh, max.
So this might be shorter, it might be longer, but, uh, I don't know.
I think like, and, and, like, I think Sean and I like Sean kind of already said it, like
we are very different people, like extremely, if you know what, you know that.
And I'm, I'm a very like, like, I like to have a plan.
I, uh, I very, I very strongly believe in, uh, like all sorts of personal discipline.
And I know Sean does too, but we're very different on how we execute it.
Absolutely.
Um, and yeah, because I don't want to say, I also don't want to sound like I'm talking
myself up to talk to you down.
Like I'm so self-disciplined and Sean sucks.
I think we just have all different parts of life we're different in.
Like we have very strong morals and we have a very strong focus on God, but on like the
basic principles of life, I think we have like a little bit, I'm more of go with the
flow and Thomas is prep.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
Thomas benefits in life on areas where I should benefit because I'm going with the flow, like
going to flip the flow sometimes is not good.
So there's a lot I can learn from Thomas.
Sometimes Thomas can learn a little from me from, you know, going with the flow.
Takes the ease and the stress and makes that like the best when you're just going with
the flow.
Cause like things just tend to happen in a positive manner, but sometimes not prepping
is a horrible thing as well.
So like you might get a bad thing, not prepping, but prepping will always give you the solution
you want to get.
Not always, definitely not always cause it's been there.
But like I believe in the prep work, I think specifically because like the prep work is
like, if you don't, it's like, you hear, you hear, like people say like, yeah, God's
going to do it, but he, he's going to move regardless of what you do.
But if you aren't moving with it, then like how much like you're limiting what can actually
happen if you're not, if you're not putting it, if you're not doing what can actually
what could happen in your life, I'm saying, right?
Because like, sure God could miraculously do all these things that you could ever want
in your life, but he's not going to do that.
Do that.
If you're not just put, if you're not putting in the work.
Yeah.
But see the thing is when putting stuff in the work, the hard part about that is like,
that is because you can be tending sheep like David and David was tending sheep and he was
just asked to give his brothers some cheese.
At this time, David is already known to be king, right?
For only his family knows.
Nobody else in the world knows, but just his family, but he was doing the outside things
that were just normal to him.
Yeah.
And it still ends up changing drastically everything by like miracles and stuff.
So like sometimes you could just be doing what you're doing and then God steps in, but
other times Thomas is right where you have to like prep and be doing what you're leading
into.
So like it's a give or take.
It's a 50-50.
Sometimes you're just doing whatever you need to do and other times you just have to do
what you're told to be doing.
So right, yeah, there is a time to go with the flow and then I think and but it's not
all the time.
Right.
And I think like and I feel like there are certain people like me, like I do sometimes
have a problem with going with the flow, but and that's something I've been growing in
a lot recently and like try and like believe it in God that he'll do the things that he
promised he'll do.
And at the same time, still like working on keeping my eyes open to the possibilities
and like working on and keep moving forward in my own personal development, personal health
and like my mindfulness, health with my mind, body and spirit.
And I think that's getting a whole other topic and I can go off on attendance all day.
But like, I don't know, like, not sure where we're going anymore.
But I think this is why the first episode is so dope because like I said, it's so raw.
It's just like we're going in and any topics up for debate or discussion and you're getting
a glimpse of what the future holds at this podcast.
Because to be honest, this is how it's going to be.
It'll be like we have such amazing brains God given us two different talents.
God's given us and yet we're still changing the world.
We're world changers still and it's just different mindset.
So you get it.
You get to hear a prep versus flow type of mindset and you get to see what or why we
think the way we're thinking.
And you're also getting a possibility of where Thomas is leading you, where Sean's leading
you, and where Christ is leading you.
And we're both leading you to Christ.
So check this out.
You'll love us.
And on that note, I think that's actually a pretty decent place to leave it.
So I without needing to dive into more senses, especially senses is an intro episode, I think
leaving it a little bit shorter than usual will be good.
I think that was dope.
But alright guys, we'll see you in the next one.
Ok.
