you do not have to read to pazz and jop

You just need to go here and listen to "Robert Christgau's Jop'd in the Closet," it's something of a compendium of robertchristgau.com and the Best of 33 years of Pazz and Jop, including some rare commentary on Lester Bangs, all in podcast format. Choice material for those who've followed P&J through its history, and for the fans who like to take their pop-cultural engagement just a sliver beyond the beyond.
