What, they don't make "off" buttons any more? When Alice is in the car, we listen to a CD in the morning, as it's either filth or hate. Moving Stern to Sirius won't change that here, he doesn't even get played here.
As a parent, it's my responsibility to filter what gets into my kid's head. She came home from school today and asked me what chronic masturbation is, an eighth grader used the phrase to insult another eighth grader. After considering the fishing addict lie, I told her the truth, and she was completely and utterly disgusted. "That's what made it such a funny insult to them." I said.
So, should I pull her out of school? I went to private school - Born Again Christian Private School, in fact, and there was a lot more sex and sex talk going on there than at the public school I went back to upon being thrown out. (Halloween, forks, Ozzy, headmaster's lawn, long story.)
No matter what you do, some stuff's gonna get heard by your kid. Fact of life. But I also feel there's things out there a lot more obscene than talk of boobies and farting. Like the Patriot Act. But that's a different thread (and yes, KY, I did read it!)
Your mileage may vary!

I ended up starting to listen to Howard by accident a couple years ago. All of my shows that I listen to in the morning end at 10am, and on days when I wouldn't get to work until after that time, there wasn't anything else to listen to, so I ended up listening to Howard. I did like listening to some of his interviews, and there were times when he would be interesting, but other times, it was just potty humour and the like, which isn't my thing. And the sex stuff wasn't offensive to me - it was just boring. I've heard other people do similar things that I found funny, but for some reason, his approach didn't do it for me.

What really was turning me off his show was Robin though. She irritates me to no end. She's like a really bad version of Ed McMahon. She goes along with pretty much everything he says and rarely adds anything original to it, and then there's what sounds like her fake laugh.

So now, I don't know what to listen to after 10am. I liked Adam Carolla ok on Loveline, but I'm not sure I'm all that interested in listening to him that much more.

Hear, hear! You must spread some Mojo around before giving it to Fab again.
