Campfire Stories: Harry Potter

A re-telling of the first Harry Potter book by the guys who did the Washington animation. Here's how PWOT describes it:
"The guys who made that incredible George Washington music video have also got an audio re-telling of the first Harry Potter book that might be the funniest thing I've heard all year. The whole thing is read in the earnest voice of an old man telling a campfire story, while saying things like this:
"Uncle Porkflaps tries to tear Harry's wig off, before remembering that Harry is a boy and probably his hair is real. 'No more magic!' His throat rasps, without its normal gravy lube. Realizing his throat is foodless, Uncle Piggins exits for the kitchen."
It's just brilliant all the way through."
If you've got the time to sit and listen for a while (it's long, yet consistently hilarious) then it's definitley worth checking out.
