Murray 'The Cretin' Acton - Dayglo Abortions "The Cretin" has been pissing people off with his raunchy rock-n-roll band, The Dayglo Abortions, since before you were born.

If you're easily offended, you should probably just skip over this one. But if you love crude humor, mayhem, acting like Black Sabbath and your mom then /episode/index/show/6ae76001-8c30-46cf-8ee7-61fcd80245da/id/25066626
