Revision as of 01:43, 25 February 2011
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 late September/early October to sometime in 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.
The ForceCast's official calendar provides information about weekly live shows.

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

Giveaways
Occasionally, Jason and Jimmy will run contests that start and end during a particular live show. Here are some of those contests.
Chronicle Books Yoda
On the November 9th live show, Jason and Jimmy gave away two copies of a new Chronicle Books collectible called Yoda: Bring You Wisdom, I Will. They asked live viewers to send them a tweet (by mentioning @forcecast) that also mentioned @chroniclebooks. The two winners were @RADuBreuil and @HayZay.
The Force Among Us DVDs
Cris Macht, director of the fan film The Force Among Us, gave Jason and Jimmy three copies of the movie. These DVDs were given away on the December 8, 2010 live show. The winners were @darthBLU3, @RichBrendle1, and @SWU_DarthMax.
