OH BOY, CAVS FANS!  Fear the 'Fro rolls on after yet ANOTHER victory, this time a complete deconstruction of the Golden State Warriors defense, due to an unreal shooting display.  Ty Jerome, Isaac Okoro, and Darius Garland shined, and Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, breaks it all down.  PLUS, a brand new song to celebrate Evan Mobley.  And the audio mailbag is overflowing.

Fear the 'Fro celebrates the Cavs 9th consecutive victory as they pull away from the Pelicans in the 2nd half.  Then Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, discusses Kenny's return to face Golden State.  Plus the mailbag continues to thrive, and the first edition of word count diarrhea.

Fear the 'Fro hits the mailbag hard in this 8th consecutive victory pod.  Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, talks about Darius Garland's brilliance, Damian's struggles in crunch time, and the Cavaliers historical peers.  

Fear the 'Fro celebrates a magical night, as the Cavs rung up a 7th win in a row after a game winning shot by Donovan Mitchell put the exclamation point on an incredible rally.  Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports, talks about all the storylines from Mitchell, to Merrill, to the man of the hour... Isaac Okoro.  And then Bob discusses the news that broke about Joel Embiid after the game.

Two-part episode! First, Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, dives into a big Cavs win, as they give Lebron just his third loss as a Cavaliers opponent in Cleveland.  Then Bob is joined by Tyler Caron, producer of the Orlando Magic Radio Network, to discuss the early season success of the Magic, and look ahead to Friday's matchup.

Take that Walt Frazier. Darius Garland puts Cleveland on his back in the 4th quarter in a comeback win vs. the Knicks at Madison Square Garden to keep the Cavs atop the Eastern Conference.  The Fear the 'Fro pod rings it in with a new anthem set to the tune of "Oh, What A Night".  

Look what happens when you empower Evan Mobley.  In an absolute emasculation of Scottie Barnes, the Cleveland Cavaliers won their season opener in convincing fashion.  Bob Schmidt talks about his takeaways, including Mobley's masterclass, the new starter Dean Wade, and an incredibly effective showing by the bench unit.  Plus, a mission statement for 2024-25 from the Fear the 'Fro podcast.

Fear the 'Fro is here to launch the season.  First we discuss the rookie extensions that got done today, with a critique of the logic and the dollars.  Then we dive into a Cavs-Raptors preview.  Bob is joined by Samson Folk, of Raptors Republic, and after discussing the state of the Raps, we conduct the 2024 DEEP ODDS DRAFT, an exercise in picking obscenely long longshots.  This an absolute behemoth of a pod, so I apologize for those of you who required brevity.  I just enjoyed the conversation that much.

We have been betrayed.  Despite the best efforts of the Fear the 'Fro podcast to expose the truth about the ENEMY OF THE POD, some of our Cavaliers brethren have fallen to the snake tongue of Tim Bontemps.  Bob delivers his completely fair and objective, not at all cherry-picked reaction to Tim Bontemps sitdown with "The Junkyard Pod".

The Cavs lost to the Bulls, but they won the starting unit's minutes behind a monstrous preseason opener from Evan Mobley.  Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, breaks down the game, and then takes aim at the NBA GM Survey, and Donovan Mitchell's lack of acknowledgment amongst NBA decision makers.
