The two most popular shows under the ForceCast banner, The Weekly ForceCast and The Clone Wars Roundtable, are recorded live on Tuesday nights at 8pm Eastern Time on Ustream.TV.
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.
Live show timetable
Except for special occasions, the following schedule is observed for a ForceCast LIVE broadcast night. 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.
When James Burns, Paul Bateman, or another European guest is on The Clone Wars Roundtable, that program will be recorded first so that the guest does not have to stay up until 10pm Eastern (2am or 3am London time, depending on Daylight Savings).
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 9, 2010 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.
The Star Wars Craft Book
Because Bonnie Burton was a guest on the April 5, 2011 live show, Jason and Jimmy gave away three copies of The Star Wars Craft Book. They asked live viewers to include "@bonniegrrl" and "@forcecast" in their tweets. The winners were @SWU_DarthMax, @TheSkyCracker, and @NickFreeland.
Autographed Tarkin Photos
Stephen Stanton sent The ForceCast three autographed 8x10 Captain Tarkin photos to give away on their April 13, 2011 live show. Jason picked listener questions to ask Dave, and the first three listeners to have their questions selected were the autographed photos. The three winners were Eric Whitely (Facebook), Jason Minné (Facebook), and @Shane_70.
