Everyday Conspiracy Theories
Sean Craig Murphy & Mena Soliman
66 episodes
7 months ago
These are NOT the full-fat conspiracies that give conspiracy theorists a bad name.

They're the wholesome, laughable, thought-provoking and largely plagiarised observations about stuff you encounter everyday.

Like suspiciously magnified seafood cabinets that make your prawns look bigger. T-shirts secretly designed by optometrists to coax you into new glasses, and something about feminine hygiene products that we probably shouldn't go into here.

Your hosts, Sean Craig Murphy and Mena Soliman, promise to bring you brisk new episodes every Tuesday -- until they are cancelled.

Why are we doing a Q&A episode?

Would we continue the podcast if one of us died? What's Seans favourite ECT of all time? (Mena hates it)


In this special episode we answer the questions put to us by our ECTeasers (collective noun for a group of ECT listeners)

The questions you've always wanted to know about your favourite podcast are not answered on this episode of your second favourie podcast.

No prizes for guessing Mena's handed Sean the keys to the computer to write the notes for this episode.

Sean Craig Murphy is Redundant

In this special episode of the Everyday Conspiracy Theories podcast, there are no ECTs and no limits.


Mena Soliman talks to his friend and co-host, Sean Craig Murphy, about his shock redundancy and what comes next after a 42-year career in radio.


How did he feel the moment he found out? How is he processing the news? And why does he say it feels "like watching your own funeral"?


Please enjoy the candid and intimate discussion in this ECT Bonus Episode.

You call this a 50th anniversary episode?

Due to popular demand, we brought back The Roast to mark our 50th* episode!


We take this moment to compare the highlights and low-lights of our ECT journey so far. There's some ribbing, there's some poking, but—thank goodness—there are no audio flashbacks.


Enjoy your meal!


*Actually it's 50+1, because we never meet a deadline.
