Right after recording their fifth episode (“Basketball”), Fischer and Kinsey hopped on an Earwolf studios speakerphone to talk about the podcast experience, an “Office” reboot and “resting Angela Martin face.” These are edited excerpts from that conversation.

Did the reaction to your trailer surprise you?

JENNA FISCHER This is a whole new world for us, so honestly we were taken aback.

ANGELA KINSEY I was on a walk in my neighborhood and this young couple were across the street, and they were like, “We love your podcast!” And I was like, “Wait, it’s not out!” And they said, “Well, we like your trailer!” I was like, “Thank you!”

So where did the idea for the podcast come from?

KINSEY I was going through my garage, and I have all of these Rubbermaid bins full of photos and memorabilia. Jenna jokes that I’m a hoarder because I save everything. I would save a little note that Oscar passed me, a drawing that Jenna drew or a prop. I have Michael Scott’s business card.

FISCHER You have Dwight and Angela’s wedding invitation.

KINSEY So I was going through it all and Jenna came over and was looking through it with me, and it made us really nostalgic. We started reminiscing, and the 15-year anniversary is coming up so we thought this is a great opportunity for us to rewatch it and talk about our memories, our behind-the-scenes moments and share it with the fans.
