In September 2006, Fergie left Radio 1 due to the station's schedule revamp on evening and weekend shows. The sound and style of his radio show had evolved over the 6 years it was on air and the station wanted him to play dance music closer to the music he played in the earlier years, which he felt he could not do. The final show aired on 23 September 2006 and was broadcast live from Kellys nightclub in Northern Ireland where he interviewed his mother Alice and brother Ken amongst others. Fergie's DJ set from Lush! was broadcast live on the Essential Mix following the final show. Over the lifetime of the radio show, guest DJs were regularly invited for an interview and 30-minute DJ mix. The show also provided a platform for up and coming DJs and producers to showcase their skills. There were live broadcasts from Ibiza, Miami, Glastonbury, the Global Gathering festival (England), the Creamfields festival (England), the Skol Beats festival (Brazil), Coloursfest (Scotland), the Planet Love festival (Northern Ireland) and The Met nightclub (Northern Ireland). These live shows typically featured a live DJ set from Fergie instead of his usual show structure. Reflecting on the show in 2014 Fergie said, "The vibe was just to have a kind of house party feel, I wanted people at home to be involved. It was a show for them hosted by me, music by the people for the people I guess". During the time of his radio show he was also a monthly columnist for Mixmag. The column was at first titled "Mixmag Future Heroes" and later as "Stick It Out! With Fergie". The column provided exposure for up and coming talent, often conjunctively with his radio show and events at the Turnmills club in London. He made his seventh consecutive appearance in the Top 100 DJs Poll of 2006, finishing in 80th place.
