00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,280
Welcome guys to the best Pat podcast you'll ever heard.

00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:06,360
The best Pat podcast?

00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:07,360
Yeah.

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,360
Oh jeez.

5
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:10,600
It's crazy.

6
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,720
No way we have a button to restart it.

7
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:14,720
Nope.

8
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,000
So this is the Technically Short podcast.

9
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,560
Oh I like that.

10
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:21,560
Technically Short.

11
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,000
Like Tech Guy in Short.

12
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,000
Yep.

13
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Did you make that up?

14
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000
I already told you about it.

15
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,000
What?

16
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,000
I didn't remember.

17
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,000
So awesome.

18
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Yeah.

19
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Technically Short.

20
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Thomas Edward Carney.

21
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Tech.

22
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Wow.

23
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,000
And this.

24
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Never mind you.

25
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,680
Honestly when I think about that, like me and you have the same middle name in itself

26
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,000
is already crazy.

27
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Yeah.

28
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Yeah.

29
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Yeah.

30
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,000
It's interesting.

31
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,000
So yeah.

32
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,000
So I'm Thomas.

33
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
I'm Sean.

34
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,480
And yeah this is just our intro episode to the Technically Short podcast.

35
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:06,640
We, our friend and pastor, Pastor Ed joked to me about this podcast a while ago and said

36
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,760
that we could literally talk about anything and he would listen.

37
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,840
So Ed you better be listening.

38
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,520
I think it's going to do well.

39
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,600
Honestly people love me and you.

40
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,600
It's like silver and gold.

41
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,880
It's like peanut butter and jelly.

42
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:25,280
You can't live with your life without having a taste.

43
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,360
That sound is so weird.

44
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,360
I don't know.

45
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:38,040
If you're listening to this first episode you already know who we are because I, yeah,

46
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,040
this is our first episode.

47
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,040
It's not, first episodes actually.

48
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,760
This is the where the preps time.

49
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,760
It's awesome.

50
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:44,760
Yeah.

51
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,720
We are not editing this at all.

52
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,720
We're not.

53
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:54,040
This is just going to be the raw uncut audio going out to whatever podcast verse we send

54
00:01:54,040 --> 00:02:01,400
it out to and we mainly because we don't have the capacity.

55
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,080
Honestly I think it's going to do really well.

56
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,160
I see a lot of people getting to know the fire within.

57
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,160
Oh jeez.

58
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:15,160
That's going to be so loud that I wish I was editing it because you just like destroyed

59
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,080
people's ear drums.

60
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,920
The fire within.

61
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:24,000
I talked so so maybe it might not hurt to show that.

62
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,000
You're good.

63
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,000
We already found out that you're good.

64
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:34,640
So yeah, the point of this episode is like an intro to who I am, to shine is why we're

65
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:35,640
doing it.

66
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:38,160
You already know who we are but we're going to talk about it anyway.

67
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,160
Yeah.

68
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:44,040
Honestly I think a lot of people can grow from hearing you Thomas and a lot of people will

69
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:49,280
definitely grow from hearing both of us and the stories that we go through on these broadcasts

70
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,120
will be amazing.

71
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,560
So stay tuned.

72
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:53,800
Be exciting.

73
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,080
You are in for a treat.

74
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,280
Sean is the number one hype man.

75
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,780
I try.

76
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:10,160
So yeah, I already told you where the preemptive start of this happened where Ed kind of just

77
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:17,160
jokingly said it to me like months ago but then we've been, ever since I mentioned it

78
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,800
to Sean we've been joking about it ever since.

79
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:29,640
So anytime we would have a 30 minute conversation about any nonsensical thing we were like yeah

80
00:03:29,640 --> 00:03:30,640
that should go on a podcast.

81
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:33,400
That would be a great podcast episode.

82
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,080
And so now we're doing it.

83
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,080
I think it's awesome.

84
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,480
Honestly because the way we're about to do this is going to be incredible because of

85
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,480
the fact.

86
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:50,600
It's literally like two amazing brains that are like opposite at times parallel at other

87
00:03:50,600 --> 00:04:00,440
times intersecting at times, seeing different controversial fun all type of different types

88
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,440
of thoughts.

89
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:08,320
So like give a bit of a background of yourself and who you are.

90
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:09,320
Okay.

91
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:10,800
Quick background of myself.

92
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,840
I'm 31 years old.

93
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:21,440
I encountered God from an early age probably from the age of five and from five to nineteen

94
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,440
lived a pretty Christian life.

95
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:30,160
Nineteen through twenty nine lived a mediocre ungodly life.

96
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:37,600
Semi, knew who Jesus was still but like I was just doing the unstoppable and the uncourageable

97
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,040
and all the horrible things.

98
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:45,480
But then twenty nine, prodigal son returns and now I'm here.

99
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:52,920
Thirty one living the good life of God and main focus is God but everything else has

100
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,520
been blessed because of that.

101
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,600
And that's the quickest summary I can tell you.

102
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,160
I've played sports.

103
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,400
I did football, did track.

104
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,840
I was too scared to play baseball for a while so not play softball.

105
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:13,680
But before I was a little nervous about that because seeing somebody get hurt early in

106
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,680
life.

107
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,920
So that's the quick intro of my life.

108
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:22,280
It's going to get a little crazier during more of deep dark conversations.

109
00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:23,280
Okay.

110
00:05:23,280 --> 00:05:31,720
Clearly we have not prepped at all for this because him and I have no, we're just, we'll

111
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,520
figure out what we're going to talk about when we're talking about it.

112
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,000
Honestly, I think that's the best way because it's raw.

113
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,000
It's raw all that way.

114
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,600
Well, definitely I'm more of a prep person.

115
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,080
So this is just, this is brand new to me.

116
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,280
I'm definitely going to be prepping more for other episodes in the future.

117
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:53,040
They're a very like, like bullet point like button.

118
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,880
But like just so we have core topics on what to talk on.

119
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,840
Honestly, it won't be, obviously won't be scripted.

120
00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:01,840
That would be a dumb podcast.

121
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:04,800
Well, some podcasts are scripted, but this time podcast shouldn't be whatever.

122
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,000
But the, so like.

123
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000
I agree.

124
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,720
So bullet points and stick into a topic.

125
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:16,600
So um, yeah, I'll give a little bit of background myself.

126
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,680
So I'm Thomas Carney.

127
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,720
I've with raised, uh, I don't know.

128
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,560
I'll just give background.

129
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,680
Who's how Sean and I even met.

130
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:32,360
We met through a amplified church here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, specifically in

131
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:42,040
Plum and we, uh, uh, really didn't know much about each other at all until he moved in.

132
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,880
And, uh, the crowd, you know what, I'm going to tell the story about how you moved in.

133
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Oh, that's crazy.

134
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,880
Because awesome.

135
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,000
Because I know still our perspective.

136
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,960
This is why this podcast, I think it's going to be really good because our perspective

137
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,960
is so bizarre.

138
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,960
It leaves different.

139
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:05,800
And the, so when, the way we moved in, it was, we all had, we had a, a get together

140
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,800
that happened one time.

141
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,720
At our, at my, currently my place.

142
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,720
Bible study.

143
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:15,720
Bible study.

144
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,080
It was about a happy one time, uh, for reasons.

145
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:28,680
And, uh, we, uh, and I, for some reason jokingly said, I think I was jokingly saying that I

146
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,080
would sit, I was like kind of looking, kind of not looking for a roommate.

147
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,080
And I was like, joke.

148
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:39,760
I forget what Sean said, but I was like, yeah, I know I got a free room upstairs and he just

149
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:40,760
flat out.

150
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:46,760
He's like, you free room my lease and at least my lease is over at the end of the month.

151
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:47,760
Wow.

152
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,960
And I was like, come the Bible, come, come the Bible study, get a place to live, look

153
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:52,960
at God.

154
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,560
And I was like, what, who are you?

155
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,760
Sounds about right.

156
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,840
Oh man.

157
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:08,480
And, uh, started, started telling people about how he was moving in before we even talked

158
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,840
about it.

159
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,320
And we, uh, eventually did.

160
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:22,880
But on, and, uh, we talked about it on a, what was it, a 20 to 30 minute car ride to

161
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:23,880
your movies?

162
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,000
No, it was to your Walmart.

163
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Was it the one?

164
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Yeah.

165
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,800
It was the Walmart because you had to go to get money out.

166
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:30,800
Oh yeah.

167
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,800
Before we go to the movies, whatever.

168
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:32,800
I don't know what we're going to do.

169
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:38,000
I just know we are driving to Walmart because your fuse is driving to the closer one because

170
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,120
you didn't know how to get there.

171
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,680
You know how to get to the Greensburg one.

172
00:08:40,680 --> 00:08:43,800
Yeah, that's how I probably did only know how to go to the Monk.

173
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,960
No, I know how to go to all of them.

174
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:46,960
That's good.

175
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:47,960
That's good.

176
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:48,960
That's probably fair.

177
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:49,960
Oh man.

178
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,960
Um, I don't know.

179
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:51,960
Yeah.

180
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:58,560
And we're, we're aiming to have these podcasts be about 30 minutes long.

181
00:08:58,560 --> 00:08:59,560
Uh, max.

182
00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:05,120
So this might be shorter, it might be longer, but, uh, I don't know.

183
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:14,520
I think like, and, and, like, I think Sean and I like Sean kind of already said it, like

184
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:21,840
we are very different people, like extremely, if you know what, you know that.

185
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:29,680
And I'm, I'm a very like, like, I like to have a plan.

186
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:38,760
I, uh, I very, I very strongly believe in, uh, like all sorts of personal discipline.

187
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:43,400
And I know Sean does too, but we're very different on how we execute it.

188
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,400
Absolutely.

189
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:50,880
Um, and yeah, because I don't want to say, I also don't want to sound like I'm talking

190
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,400
myself up to talk to you down.

191
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,160
Like I'm so self-disciplined and Sean sucks.

192
00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:01,600
I think we just have all different parts of life we're different in.

193
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:08,080
Like we have very strong morals and we have a very strong focus on God, but on like the

194
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,760
basic principles of life, I think we have like a little bit, I'm more of go with the

195
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,680
flow and Thomas is prep.

196
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,200
And there's nothing wrong with that.

197
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:22,440
Thomas benefits in life on areas where I should benefit because I'm going with the flow, like

198
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,080
going to flip the flow sometimes is not good.

199
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,160
So there's a lot I can learn from Thomas.

200
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,880
Sometimes Thomas can learn a little from me from, you know, going with the flow.

201
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,480
Takes the ease and the stress and makes that like the best when you're just going with

202
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,480
the flow.

203
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:42,720
Cause like things just tend to happen in a positive manner, but sometimes not prepping

204
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,200
is a horrible thing as well.

205
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:49,080
So like you might get a bad thing, not prepping, but prepping will always give you the solution

206
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,400
you want to get.

207
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,960
Not always, definitely not always cause it's been there.

208
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:05,000
But like I believe in the prep work, I think specifically because like the prep work is

209
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,920
like, if you don't, it's like, you hear, you hear, like people say like, yeah, God's

210
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:16,160
going to do it, but he, he's going to move regardless of what you do.

211
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:21,920
But if you aren't moving with it, then like how much like you're limiting what can actually

212
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:27,000
happen if you're not, if you're not putting it, if you're not doing what can actually

213
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,080
what could happen in your life, I'm saying, right?

214
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,320
Because like, sure God could miraculously do all these things that you could ever want

215
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,240
in your life, but he's not going to do that.

216
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,240
Do that.

217
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,240
Do that.

218
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,880
If you're not just put, if you're not putting in the work.

219
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:42,880
Yeah.

220
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,120
But see the thing is when putting stuff in the work, the hard part about that is like,

221
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:53,240
that is because you can be tending sheep like David and David was tending sheep and he was

222
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,120
just asked to give his brothers some cheese.

223
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,600
At this time, David is already known to be king, right?

224
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,000
For only his family knows.

225
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:08,680
Nobody else in the world knows, but just his family, but he was doing the outside things

226
00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:11,160
that were just normal to him.

227
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,160
Yeah.

228
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:18,480
And it still ends up changing drastically everything by like miracles and stuff.

229
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:23,720
So like sometimes you could just be doing what you're doing and then God steps in, but

230
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:29,040
other times Thomas is right where you have to like prep and be doing what you're leading

231
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,080
into.

232
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,080
So like it's a give or take.

233
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,440
It's a 50-50.

234
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,880
Sometimes you're just doing whatever you need to do and other times you just have to do

235
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,640
what you're told to be doing.

236
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:51,720
So right, yeah, there is a time to go with the flow and then I think and but it's not

237
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:52,720
all the time.

238
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:53,720
Right.

239
00:12:53,720 --> 00:13:00,560
And I think like and I feel like there are certain people like me, like I do sometimes

240
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:07,240
have a problem with going with the flow, but and that's something I've been growing in

241
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,760
a lot recently and like try and like believe it in God that he'll do the things that he

242
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:16,280
promised he'll do.

243
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:23,440
And at the same time, still like working on keeping my eyes open to the possibilities

244
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,520
and like working on and keep moving forward in my own personal development, personal health

245
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:36,760
and like my mindfulness, health with my mind, body and spirit.

246
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:42,240
And I think that's getting a whole other topic and I can go off on attendance all day.

247
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:50,200
But like, I don't know, like, not sure where we're going anymore.

248
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,960
But I think this is why the first episode is so dope because like I said, it's so raw.

249
00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:00,560
It's just like we're going in and any topics up for debate or discussion and you're getting

250
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:04,520
a glimpse of what the future holds at this podcast.

251
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,760
Because to be honest, this is how it's going to be.

252
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:12,080
It'll be like we have such amazing brains God given us two different talents.

253
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,960
God's given us and yet we're still changing the world.

254
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,400
We're world changers still and it's just different mindset.

255
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:20,400
So you get it.

256
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:26,440
You get to hear a prep versus flow type of mindset and you get to see what or why we

257
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,120
think the way we're thinking.

258
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:34,560
And you're also getting a possibility of where Thomas is leading you, where Sean's leading

259
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,640
you, and where Christ is leading you.

260
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,680
And we're both leading you to Christ.

261
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,400
So check this out.

262
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,040
You'll love us.

263
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,120
And on that note, I think that's actually a pretty decent place to leave it.

264
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:55,760
So I without needing to dive into more senses, especially senses is an intro episode, I think

265
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,680
leaving it a little bit shorter than usual will be good.

266
00:14:58,680 --> 00:14:59,840
I think that was dope.

267
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,920
But alright guys, we'll see you in the next one.

268
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:32,040
Ok.
