What if one simple question could rewire the way you see every idea?

Welcome to The Envy League, a podcast that turns jealousy into your creative super power.

In this first episode, host Matthew Doherty explores what happens when jealousy spirals and how asking why—again and again—can flip it into something better: envy. The good kind. The smooth, smart, emotionally intelligent kind that fuels originality instead of blocking it.

Through stories of Harry Potter avoidance, Ari Aster obsession, and a spiral over KPop Demon Hunters, Matthew shows how chasing your whys uncovers patterns, sparks new thinking, and brings you closer to the big ideas in pop culture you wish you made first.

Hit play. Your initiation into The Envy League starts now.

Have you ever seen something so good, it wrecks you just knowing it wasn’t yours? Ever had an idea… until someone else made it first? Same.

Welcome to The Envy League, the show that turns jealousy into what everyone else will be drooling over next.

Hosted by creative director and envy expert Matthew Doherty, this podcast dives into the ideas we’re obsessed with in culture. The kind that make you say, “Why didn’t I think of that?!”

Each week, we break it all down: why we're obsessed, what makes it so good, and how to turn jealousy into your next envy-worthy idea.
