My dad is pretty cool so I don't think he'd mind. Speaking of which my mother-in-law shocked me the other day, I would have never taken her for a Stern fan, but she watches the E show everynight. Stern got a $500 million contract to move his show from the terrestrial radio network he is on to their satellite network. Kind of like if Katie Couric was offered that to go from NBC's Today Show to the CBS Evening News (to borrow from another thread). I guess that you can argue that part of the subscription fee would go to home, but divide that by the rest of the stations/personalities on Serius and it would come out to be a VERY small portion.

Stern will probably only have a 4 hours show M-F on one station (they may run repeats at different times), so your Dad wouldn't have to listen to that station during that time if it would offend him. I have XM radio and Opie and Anthony are on there - you can argue that they are just as bad if not worse, but again it's optional whether I listen to them or not. There is also channel blocking available if you want to avoid the tempation at all costs.
