  • Respect

    Chris has grown so much over the years. And Jimmy has some great takes. Ethan knows his stuff but I just can’t follow the cadence of his talking. It grates on me for some reason.

  • STILL Amateur hour

    After a few months off, I was hopeful this podcast dropped high school level Ethan but he’s still somehow the moderator of this awful pod. And Chris offers no objective perspective. Just non stop showering of blandishments and kissing of butt content. I mean Cavs are great but come on Chris, last year you defended inept JB and this year you proclaim Niang is untradeable?! lol. Must do better here!

  • Ethan your mic is hot garbage.

    I enjoy this podcast and its content but for the love of God Ethan can you buy a mic that doesn’t sound like you’re talking into a Nokia inside of a wind tunnel. It’s a podcast. Produce quality audio.

  • An embarrassing listen

    Fedor is one of very few people who can give good Cavs insight, but it’s become so plainly a habit for him to have an incompetent co-host that I’m starting to wonder if he deliberately prefers it this way, so that he can seem smarter. That’s the only explanation I could come up with for having Hayden and now Ethan co-host. They are truly the two least qualified people I’ve ever heard host a podcast, and that’s saying something! I want to keep up on the Cavs, but this is an embarrassing listen.
