Zach Braff visits his friend Howard Stern to talk "Wish I Was Here," a movie that was funded through Kickstarter and has been a big hit among moviegoers.

Braff also gave Stern a little insight on his role in Bullets Over Broadway.

According to HowardStern.com, Braff raised over three million dollars to fund his movie even though some of his Hollywood friends, Seth Rogen being one of them, insisted that he could do it the old fashion way instead of enlisting the fans to help support him.

Braff simply realized that he didn't need a big blockbuster hit, because his films were "smaller, more personal."

Along with singing and dancing in Bullets Over Broadway in eight shows per week according to Sterns website, Braff spends his one day off traveling to the different cities giving the fans who donated and supported him in his movie an advanced screening.

Woody Allen actually wrote Bullets Over Broadway and Braff gave Stern all of the details on what went down the first time he let his ex-girlfriend, Taylor Bagley, meet Allen. Braff began telling the story as if Allen was trying to steal his girlfriend as he was asking for her number and wanting to "get together for coffee," then drops the bomb that Allen's female assistant that was the one interested in getting together.

How awkward must it have been for Braff answering those questions from a comedic legend without losing his cool.
