NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2013

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI) today
announced that SiriusXM host/stand-up comedian Pete Dominick will host a new
daily morning drive call-in show, Stand Up! with Pete Dominick.

Beginning February 11, Stand Up! with Pete Dominick! will air live weekdays
from 6:00 – 9:00 am ET, replaying from 6:00 – 9:00 am PT, on Indie, SiriusXM
channel 104. 

Inspired by his fascination with politics, public policy and social issues,
Dominick approaches everything with his razor sharp wit and tongue,
challenging listeners to take a stand and keep an open mind. Dominick will
explore everything from foreign policy and economics to parenting and
education, as well as the day's top stories, with expert guests and listeners
nationwide. Dominick will interview a wide range of guests—from policymakers
to authors to celebrities to filmmakers to veterans and beyond—inviting them
to tell their stories without agendas, scripts, or time limits

"I don't pretend to have all the answers. I'm proud to say I learn from my
listeners instead of lecturing at them," said Pete Dominick. "My perspective
as a stand-up comic and father of two girls is why I relate to and have a
truly authentic connection with my listeners from all backgrounds. I'll leave
celebrity gossip and voyeurism to others while I explore more important issues
with my listeners and the experts that can speak to them best."  

"Pete is a great entertainer and fearless thinker, unwilling to accept
conventional wisdom and challenging people to think for themselves," said
Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. "There's
nothing else like this, and we look forward to giving our national audience a
place to gather for smart, motivational and entertaining conversation where no
idea is off limits."

Dominick joined SiriusXM in August 2006 as a host on Raw Dog Comedy. He
launched Stand Up! on non-partisan political talk channel SiriusXM P.O.T.U.S.
in February 2008, and the show quickly became a can't-miss stop for experts
and newsmakers. Dominick also made news himself in September 2010: his
interview with then-CNN host Rick Sanchez sparked a controversy when Sanchez
made comments viewed as anti-Semitic that led to his being fired. For the last
six years, Dominick has also had the sought-after job of opening for Stephen
Colbert on "The Colbert Report," a job he'll leave to focus on his new
SiriusXM radio show.

SiriusXM's Indie channel, formerly SiriusXM Stars Too, features daily shows
hosted by Dominick, Covino & Rich and Jay Thomas, plus shows from Rotten
Tomatoes, BuzzFeed, Neil Strauss and others.

Stand Up! with Pete Dominick will be available on SiriusXM On Demand for
subscribers listening via the SiriusXM Internet Radio App for smartphones and
other mobile devices or online at siriusxm.com.
