Uncanny Episodes

No doubt that Facebook / Meta has upped its marketing game with the Quest 2. You probably got one, or your kids, and you probably don't really have a clue on what to do with it or how cool it is. We're going to focus on the 30-50 age demographic so your not going to see suggestions like "Population one" or "Resident Evil 4" which I'm hearing are games of the year, but if you want to enjoy your Facebook / Meta Oculus Quest 2 VR headset, these are the TOP TEN RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES AND APPS to get!

We’re giving thanks this week for the things we have, but how about the thing that we don’t have, or even know about? Like this Thanksgiving Day Tradition? Did the Puritan Colonists come to America in peace, and cordially invited the indigenous Native Americans to a turkey dinner with all the fixings? Because we know that story is pretty much a FAIRY TALE, indoctrinated to the public for hundreds of years. Let’s give thanks this month for the good things we do have, but let’s not forget the REAL...

For anyone who is listening, this really happens. You get a ticket, doesn’t matter what it is, no seat belt, on the phone, no parking after 11am… you forget to pay it in time, and next thing you know you owe hundreds of dollars, your license is suspended and you are then be arrested and thrown in jail. For not dealing with a broken tail light in time? Really?!?! Is this for real? Many people’s lives have been ruined by this process and we are here to talk about it! The ticket conspiracy is happe...

We add an endcap to our Road Rage episode and continue talking about issues with cars, by sharing the UNCANNY side of this unlucky event! It has happened to almost everyone at some point, though many have been diligent enough to never let it happen, (like CocoLoco). CocoPelao apparently, enjoys living on the edge and has 4 stories to share, with one being so incredible, we should be calling him CocoLucky!

The New Normal is not so “normal” after all. The Covid pandemic has disrupted the global retail industry. Microchips supplies scarcity has affected all our day-to-day electronics which we depend on. Even new cars are delayed for months. Unpredictable natural disasters have the entire distribution supply chain in shambles, affecting the USPS from keeping their scheduled deliveries, to the point where you will not get your Black Friday gifts in time. We don’t like to bring Gloom and Doom here at t...

Do they REALLY need to come out with a new UPGRADE or model EVERY year? The iPhone 13 just came out, Samsung Galaxy S22 is also coming out soon, and people haven’t had a chance to upgrade to the last model. Why do companies keep doing this when there are very little differences between the model generations? Planned Obsolescence? #capitalism #Greed? To get you to buy more stuff? We’ll tell you on this episode of the Uncanny CocoNuts. #rant #upgrades #boycottyearlyupgrades #uncannycoconuts --- ...

Interview with Director, Musician, and Educator, Dennis Polanco. Is the U.S. #education system making a huge mistake in eliminating the Arts in school curriculums? We get an in-depth perspective from a creative educator who has been able to bring the passion for the Arts into the common classroom for the last 30 years. Why do we need more teachers like Professor Polanco? …on this episode of the Uncanny CocoNuts. #EducationForAll Accolades from the 2019 New Hope Film Festival: “Shadow Lands” nom...

In this week's rant we go over some recent events that we can only classify as "Stupid things People Do". Maybe it's a sign of our age, and having some "wisdom" as are bodies get weakened... but you got to admit that they make no sense! Flaming Hot Mtn Dew beverage? The Milk Crate Challenge?

Is Conventionalism destroying the world or getting in the way of progress? We think so. Today we discuss how we stay stuck in the "conventional" and because of this, limit ourselves to different and "creative" ways of accomplishing things... like a Pyramid. Why can't people solve problems with Creativity instead of Conventionalism? Why is it ridiculed? Is it because the elite running the world do not want us to? We go back to the Ancient Egyptian pyramid building process and explain why their cr...

It's been all over the news these last few weeks: First, Jeff Bezos whining, sueing Nasa and making snipe remarks and jabs at not getting the NASA contract, and then Elon Musk responding in kind (though he already secured the contract). Why do these Billionaires feel entitled to do WHATEVER they want? Aren't there OTHER projects, space race's and contributions to humanity that Jeff Bezos can pursue? Does it have to be the Artemis mission that he already lost? We rant over why this is! #jeffbezos...

With HBOMAX getting ready to release "Dune" in October 2021, we started trying to remember the original Dune movie... and then realized that George Lucas owes his DIRECT INSPIRATION for the ORIGINAL STAR WARS to it!!! Dare we say, STRAIGHT UP STOLE!?!? We didn't believe it either... and then we found stories of die hard "DUNE" fans complaining about this since STAR WARS WAS RELEASED!!!! There are too many things that are SIMILAR to disregard the facts! So we watched the 1984 Dune movie and googl...

In today's rant, Coco Loco shares some amusing news with Coco Pelao, that sets him off! It involves a trouble-making, not-so-nice neighbor with "racist tendencies" and their recent good news. It appears that the "racist" is being rewarded for his behavior and exemplified as a GREAT NEIGHBOR?!? Is this typical of todays society? Will it ever change? Doesn’t seem that way! Obviously not the best that society has to offer but he is being displayed like he is. Let's get to the RANT! #whiteprivilege...

We only have 24 hours in a day, yet we are expected to do everything NEEDED in those 24 hours. Our rant today: we breakdown our daily hours down and identify TIME NEEDS and Priorities, where our time goes, and more importantly, how much time we have left! If you've ever wondered why you don't have time to workout, learn a new skill, or pursue your hobby... let us enlighten you. Like a punch to the face!

"The Weekly RANT". During the pandemic, many FINALLY got their wish to WFH (work from home). For years companies WOULD NOT accommodate remote work for employees although the technology supported this years ago! During the COVID PANDEMIC, business gave in and it has proven effective and profitable! Now they want us back in the office as if everything is now normal! Really? So pandemic is gone? Can they put this genie back in the bottle? If being Remote is so much productive and convenient for the...
