“Probably lots of people right now are going, ‘Oh, shit, let’s start a podcast,’” says actor Zach Braff, who just started a podcast. Braff’s podcast, a collaboration with former Scrubs castmate Donald Faison, launched on March 31. The show, a weekly iHeartRadio production called Fake Doctors, Real Friends, is an opportunity for the titular friends to rewatch the sitcom they starred in and relive the period when their guy love began. Scrubs started almost 20 years ago, so when I call the cohosts, I ask them how well they’ve recalled the series so far.

“I’m going to be honest with you,” Faison says. “So far, I don’t remember anything.”

“That’s not true, Donald,” Braff protests.

To settle the dispute, I point out that on the podcast’s debut episode, Faison professed to remember what Braff was wearing at the first table read for Scrubs: brown corduroys and a T-shirt.

“I don’t know if I’d trust that,” Braff says. “I don’t think I would have rocked brown corduroys to the table read.”

“I really believe you did, man,” Faison says. “You always wore brown corduroys.”

This second dispute sets off an extended exchange.

“Now that you brought up the corduroys, I have a memory of you making fun of me for wearing corduroys in the summertime.”

“Yeah, you used to do that. I’m sure it’s pretty clear that corduroy is winter clothing.”

“I didn’t know that corduroys in the summer was a fashion faux pas until you laughed at me.”

“Just think about it. It’s an extra layer to protect you from the cold.”

“I wouldn’t do it now, but probably because my brain goes, ‘How about those? No, Donald will laugh.’”

“Well, I’m glad I taught you something.”

As I listen to the tangent—and vainly try to interject with a question about something other than pants—I can almost hear George Costanza saying, “See, this should be the show!” Like the sitcom George and Jerry pitched on Seinfeld, Fake Doctors, Real Friends is sometimes talk about nothing. That’s the “real friends” part. But because “fake doctors” comes first, it mostly is about something: Scrubs. Week by week and hour by hour, Braff, Faison, and friends like Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence and costar Sarah Chalke are reminiscing about every episode of the nine-season series—or at least the first two seasons, after which, Braff says, the two will take each other’s temperature (presumably with a fake thermometer).
