Revision as of 01:08, 11 December 2010

ForceCastLiveUstream

Most programs under the ForceCast banner are recorded live on the show's Ustream.TV page.

When The Clone Wars is airing new episodes (from roughly late September or early October to late April), the live shows occur on Tuesday nights at 8pm ET. During the TCW off-season, episodes are broadcast live on Wednesday nights at the same time.

The live show page includes a video module where viewers can see Jason's side of the show, along with photos of Jimmy and guests when they are speaking. Kay and Mark Minckiewicz of FCTV fame created graphics for popular weekly show segments like Headline News and Listener Feedback.

The Ustream page also includes a chat room, moderated by Eric Geller, where viewers can discuss the show and associated topics.

Live schedule

Aside from special occasions, the following schedule is usually observed for ForceCast LIVE. All times are approximate.

Program Start Time End Time
The Weekly ForceCast 8:00pm 10:00pm
The Clone Wars Roundtable 10:15pm 11:30pm

After The Weekly ForceCast has wrapped, Jason will usually leave the live audio enabled as he and Jimmy prepare for The Clone Wars Roundtable. Live viewers can then hear Roundtable guests chatting with the hosts and their fellow guests as Jason sets up the Skype conference.
