Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hello everybody, this is Patrick Daly.
Welcome to another episode ofFracture.
This is where we tackle the upsand downs of life, with all
those silly certifications andlicenses.
As I promised, we have a coupleof revelations for you today.
One, welcome.
(00:30):
This is our first video podcast.
And two, I'm peeling off themask, something I've been
wanting to do for a long time.
It means a lot to me to do this.
This episode is going to bededicated to explaining to
everyone Patrick the Alien.
(00:53):
This has been coming for a longtime now.
When I started this podcast,patrick the Alien was an alias I
took on, basically to protectmy two brothers who grew up with
me, who faced the same way,only because of our age
(01:16):
differences and I love mybrothers we didn't always get
along, so I wanted to protectthem and that was the whole
(01:48):
purpose of the alias and usingcharacter names.
And I did not ask for theirpermission when I started this
podcast, because it was my story, not theirs.
So that was the whole idea, andsince then I've talked to them
both and I've come to understandthat they're okay with it.
So, after talking to my closefamily, my loved ones, I felt
(02:15):
like it was necessary tobasically peel the skin back,
and this has been a form oftherapy for me For a long time.
I had to come to terms with whoI am.
Patrick the alien is me.
I've never fit in.
I've always been basically theoutcast, the goofball, the
(02:40):
person on the fringe.
You could say a defender of theinnocent, I guess, the person
that people called on when theyneeded somebody to protect them,
the person that you knew youcould call when somebody was
getting hurt.
Maybe I was a bit over the top.
(03:05):
Sometimes I'm a bit softer now.
I had a rough childhood, a lotof abuse.
Things didn't always go.
You know the way they'resupposed to go.
I'll touch on those storiesmore in the future.
This is more the explanation ofwho I am Patrick the Alien,
(03:30):
patrick Aloysius.
Actually, believe it or not, myname is Pat, not Patrick.
I've hated the name Patrick myentire life.
Actually.
I've hated the name Patrick myentire life.
Actually I just had abrother-in-law.
Just ask me just recently goeswhy, after all these years, do
you want to go by the namePatrick after hating it your
(03:52):
whole entire life?
And last year I lost my mother.
I did not realize how much Iloved my mom until she was gone
and the only person that evercalled me Patrick that I could
tolerate was my mother and shewould call me that, not
(04:13):
necessarily when she was mad atme, but she did call me when she
was mad at me.
But she would do it as a termof endearment.
She would call me PatrickAloysius Aloysius was not my
middle name either, but shewould say Patrick Aloysius and I
would come running and man, Imiss that woman.
(04:41):
She used to in the mornings inher faded cotton gown.
I can still see her in thekitchen singing Patsy Cline
songs to us boys and I miss thatterribly.
And she meant the world to me,didn't always.
I held a grudge against thewoman for years, but the last
couple years of her life we gotreally close and I miss her
(05:05):
terribly.
Very close to me, very powerfulwoman the Patrick, the, the
Alien was.
It wasn't meant to be along-term character.
(05:28):
It got kind of carried on toofar.
Then it took a life of its own,as you can see behind me, the
alien artifacts and stuff I had.
Fans started sending me thingsin the mail.
I had people asking me forthings such as skin cells true
(05:50):
alien.
They were disappointed in me alittle bit.
I'm sorry about that.
(06:26):
It's not that I don't believein aliens.
I believe in everything.
I think everybody should havesomething to believe in.
I dig Bigfoot.
I got him back here on theshelf somewhere.
I think everybody should havesomething to believe in.
It's like I'm happy believingin everything.
I think.
The more the better.
(06:48):
Everybody should be happy and Ihonestly believe that.
Last year my life was turnedupside down.
I was the crew chief of ourlocal city's utility.
I had a traumatic accident.
(07:08):
I fell into a hole headfirst,broke my neck, nicked my spinal
cord, got a brain injury,partial paralysis on my left
side, my left arm and left leg.
Unfortunately, that's my strongside.
I have short-term memory loss,tremors on my left side, can't
(07:32):
turn my head to the left verywell.
A lot of issues, a lot of pain.
I had four surgeries so far.
I'm scheduled to have more.
It hasn't been easy.
My life's been turned upsidedown.
I miss my job.
I miss the guys that I workwith.
(07:54):
I didn't realize how much I wasgoing to miss it.
I didn't realize that my lifewas going to change so much.
I can't even drive through thetown that I live in anymore.
The PTSD is so bad, it justworks me up.
(08:15):
I used to take two medicationsfor blood pressure.
Now I'm on 14 medications.
Between my head I take threemedications to control the
headaches that are out ofcontrol, the pain in my neck,
the nerve pain.
It's horrible.
(08:36):
Thank God I have a wonderfulwife I've been married to for 37
years.
Wonderful wife I've beenmarried to for 37 years my
daughter, who takes great careof me.
I have a great support team.
I've been very fortunate.
I'd like to speak about mydaughter.
We have two children my son,who has a boy who is going into
(09:04):
11th grade.
Fantastic young man who I'mvery proud of.
We call him Poe.
He's a poet, very smart youngman, dakota Lee Jr.
We have a daughter, cynthia.
She was born with a fataldisease called cystic fibrosis.
She has had two double lungtransplants In.
(09:31):
She takes care of me.
She does all my IT work herethe marketing.
I'm an idiot.
Without her I couldn't doanything.
(09:52):
I'm very proud of her and thethings she does for me.
Our last episode was theresilience of generations,
strong women.
She's the strongest woman I'veever met.
That's why I wanted to do thatepisode, because it was like
working backwards.
(10:12):
I look at her and then you workyour way up and her mother,
who's like a rock, and then hermother before my mother-in-law,
powerful woman, the things thatshe had to go through, and I'd
only heard the stories of hermother before her.
She grew up in the, you know,before the Depression, and she
(10:36):
used she lived in a tenementbuilding and they used to take
the doors apart in the cellarand burn them for firewood and
they would eat coal.
They would literally chew ontar for something I mean just
for something to do.
That's how tough and ruggedthese kids were.
Like I couldn't imagine it, butthey were.
(10:59):
It's just tough women in thatfamily and I'm just so very
proud that I'm part of thatfamily.
My family was a little bitdifferent.
You know, my mom was an onlychild.
She had it rough.
She was a very strong woman.
My father, on the other hand,was a very, very rough man, a
(11:26):
long-distance truck driver.
He was abusive, but those arestories for another day.
Like I said, this has to revealabout me.
I was a rough kid growing up.
One of four boys, all of us,joined the service.
(11:47):
My oldest brother has passed onsince then.
We all looked up to him.
He was.
I said he was the oldest Andy.
He taught me how to fish, swim,ride a bike.
I love that guy to death.
He's very hard to understand.
Unfortunately, we all sufferedwith a little bit of a bipolar
(12:10):
thing.
I think A couple of us takemedication for it.
I feel like mine's undercontrol now.
I deal with depression.
Since my accident, it's beentougher.
I think we all have days, but Ihave days where it's really
(12:33):
tough.
Since my accident and since mymother's passed on and my
brother, I've had really toughdays, but this podcast has
really saved me.
I wanna say thank you to all thepeople who downloaded it, who
have listened to it, who havegiven me feedback, who interact
(12:56):
with me on social media,especially on Facebook, the
other social media pages.
I'm trying my best with mydaughter's helping me with
TikTok and Snapchat andInstagram.
I'm old, I'm 56 years old.
You know I don't know what I'mdoing, but I'm trying.
I've messed up a few times onSnapchat.
(13:18):
I apologize to you young people, I don't know what I'm doing,
but I'm trying.
You know, give me a break alittle bit on that.
I've seen some stuff I wish Ihadn't seen on Snapchat.
By the way, you people scaredme a little bit, but besides
that, I mean we're doing thebest we can do.
(13:39):
I think as time goes on, thingswill only get better.
Like I said, I really believethat this podcast, this, started
as therapy and therapy only.
There was never going to be amonetized thing behind it.
(13:59):
It was never meant to beadvertising.
I never, you know, I didn'tcare about subscribers, I won't
lie.
After a little while it's likeI kind of got a little greedy.
I wanted to see how good Icould get.
I listened to the first episode.
I wish there was a way I couldtake it down, because it's so
hideous.
It's really, really terrible,but it's a reminder.
(14:24):
And then the second episodeisn't much better and I know
they're gradually getting alittle bit better.
I still don't know what I'mdoing, but I'm trying.
I really am.
I hope you stick with me.
I follow the statistics.
I know there's a lot ofone-shot ponies out there.
I see you.
I look at the stats.
(14:44):
People only listen to one andthen they run away.
I wish you'd come back andlisten to some of the other
podcasts.
I mean, they're getting better.
I'm trying to find bettermaterial.
I'm going to be doing moreinterviews.
If you'll interact with me,tell me what you want to hear.
I'll go find it.
(15:06):
I'll do the interviews, I'll goout and search out what you
want.
This particular interview Imean this podcast that we're
doing right now may not be whatyou want, but I wanted to clear
the air a little bit.
I wanted you to know who I am.
I'm Pat and you're you, and nowwe know each other.
(15:29):
Continue to call me Patrick theAlien.
We're gonna keep having funwith us.
I've had a lot of fun with us.
I don't want it all to be downin the dump stuff.
I want to continue findingthose little stories that
everybody may not know about.
I love doing that stuff.
(15:51):
If you, if you like that, letme know, because that's that's
really where I want to focus.
I like finding that that kindof stuff and sharing it.
Human interest stories.
I love people and I like tryingto make people happy.
I love seeing people smile.
(16:12):
I love it when other people arehappy.
I truly do.
I want the best for everybodythat I meet.
I always have, and my hardestthing in life are trying to make
the people closest to me happy.
Sometimes I feel like I'vefailed miserably with that I've
(16:36):
had a couple close relationshipsthat I can't seem to work out
and I don't know what I can dobetter with, and maybe through
this I'll figure it out.
I don't know I Want.
I want that Maybe throughresearching, working through my
(16:57):
problems with this and mytherapy I'll figure it out.
I Don't know If you enjoyed thebook, reviews or music or
anything like that.
Let me know, I'll keep it up.
Pat's ponders that was somethingI've been doing for over 20
(17:19):
years.
Some of them I came up on myown.
Some of them I dig up my buddyGraham, who taught me the water
industry over 20 years ago.
We used to sit in the truck andI had nothing better to do on
long rides home from Orlando andthat's what I would do to
(17:41):
entertain him.
He would sing.
I would tell my ponders.
That's what we did and we sweata lot.
That's what we did and we sweata lot, but that's what we did.
You know, history's my thing.
I like a lot of history facts,so we could share a lot of
(18:02):
history on here.
I love little things aboutstates that people don't know,
political facts that peopledon't know anything, little
quirky facts, all those littlethings.
(18:27):
I hope that, I think, works.
If.
If it's not working for yousure that too, again, anything
goes on here you tell me andthen we'll work it out together.
I want this to be your platformas well as mine.
(18:52):
We can do anything you want todo together.
You just share, and then I'llshare it here.
Let's be a team.
Let's conquer the worldtogether.
I truly believe that we can dothat.
(19:15):
All things are possible.
Believe in yourself.

trying to do good, givestruggling and you need help,

I still don't know what I'mdoing, but I'm trying.
I really am.
I hope you stick with me.
I follow the statistics.
I know there's a lot ofone-shot ponies out there.
I see you.
I look at the stats.
(14:44):
People only listen to one andthen they run away.
I wish you'd come back andlisten to some of the other
podcasts.
I mean, they're getting better.
I'm trying to find bettermaterial.
I'm going to be doing moreinterviews.
If you'll interact with me,tell me what you want to hear.

(15:06):
I'll do the interviews, I'll goout and search out what you
want.
This particular interview Imean this podcast that we're
doing right now may not be whatyou want, but I wanted to clear
the air a little bit.
I wanted you to know who I am.
I'm Pat and you're you, and nowwe know each other.
(15:29):
Continue to call me Patrick theAlien.
We're gonna keep having funwith us.
I've had a lot of fun with us.
I don't want it all to be downin the dump stuff.
I want to continue findingthose little stories that
everybody may not know about.
I love doing that stuff.
(15:51):

really where I want to focus.
I like finding that that kindof stuff and sharing it.
Human interest stories.
I love people and I like tryingto make people happy.

(16:12):
I love it when other people arehappy.
I truly do.
I want the best for everybodythat I meet.
I always have, and my hardestthing in life are trying to make
the people closest to me happy.
Sometimes I feel like I'vefailed miserably with that I've
(16:36):
had a couple close relationshipsthat I can't seem to work out
and I don't know what I can dobetter with, and maybe through
this I'll figure it out.
I don't know I Want.

(16:57):
problems with this and mytherapy I'll figure it out.
I Don't know If you enjoyed thebook, reviews or music or
anything like that.

Pat's ponders that was somethingI've been doing for over 20
(17:19):
years.
Some of them I came up on myown.
Some of them I dig up my buddyGraham, who taught me the water
industry over 20 years ago.
We used to sit in the truck andI had nothing better to do on
long rides home from Orlando andthat's what I would do to
(17:41):
entertain him.
He would sing.
I would tell my ponders.
That's what we did and we sweata lot.
That's what we did and we sweata lot, but that's what we did.
You know, history's my thing.
I like a lot of history facts,so we could share a lot of
(18:02):
history on here.
I love little things aboutstates that people don't know,
political facts that peopledon't know anything, little
quirky facts, all those littlethings.
(18:27):
I hope that, I think, works.
If.

goes on here you tell me andthen we'll work it out together.
I want this to be your platformas well as mine.
