Starting point is 00:00:35 Hey townies, welcome to a Friday episode of Dumb People Town Population you, Population Lesher Matt Lesher. Welcome to the show, buddy. So excited to be in town. It is so nice to have you in the town. I've heard a lot about this town.
Starting point is 00:00:50 We were just talking about the movie that we did with you, Teacher of the Year, which is still available on Netflix. Is it really? I think it is. It's pretty good. It should be on Netflix. Why is our voice getting so high? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Keegan-Michael Key's in it. He's great. This is the comic register. This is when you get funny. No, this is good. No, I don't know. Keegan-Michael Key's in it. He's great. This is the comic register. This is when you get funny. No, I... Jamie Kaler. I loved doing the... I loved what we did in that movie,
Starting point is 00:01:12 and I loved how it came out, but you were fantastic. You were the heart and soul of that movie. You were the teacher of the year. I was the teacher of the year. Such a good actor. Of the title. Yeah, thank you.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Well, that was one of those things that we just really pulled out of our ass. I mean, it was shot on a shoestring and in a couple of days. But did it come out? Like, when did Her come out? I think Her was after that. So I just freaking out. Yeah, seeing you, the high-waisted pants that you had to wear in Her.
Starting point is 00:01:41 Oh, my God. I saw Her in the movie theater. And when you... Because you played Scarlett Johansson's... No, Amy Adams. Amy Adams' husband. Husband. That's it.
Starting point is 00:01:52 But you showed up with the high-waisted things and the whole theater cracked up. I know. Everybody had the high-waisted things, but mine were... But my nipples. Right. They were so high.
Starting point is 00:02:01 It was such a visual thing that I'm sure was never written in the script to be a laugh out loud moment, but it was amazing. Yeah, and I don't think Spike ever writes really laugh out loud moments. I remember when I walked in with the wardrobe and my hair was like plastered across my forehead.
Starting point is 00:02:17 She just kind of looked at me like, okay, yeah. Is he calm, dude? He's so zen. But he's so like, he's fun too. Is he zen because he's already done so much's so like he's fun too is he zen because he's already done so much great shit
Starting point is 00:02:27 that like yeah maybe he said like I'm already in the pantheon I don't have to impress anybody plus I know
Starting point is 00:02:34 I do everything like he can literally do everything he can act he can shoot it he can act he can edit it he's like
Starting point is 00:02:40 you know doing it all on a macbook and a canon on set. It's crazy. I'll say this about that movie. He is a smart guy. I'll say this about that movie.
Starting point is 00:02:49 That movie, and this is why I think movies are great. It kind of reminded me why movies are great. I could not stop thinking about that movie after I saw it. And I'm like, okay, it's really hard to do a movie about the future. Obviously, Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies of all time. And the reason I bring it up is because I believe we're living in a world that's getting dumber than this podcast totally. And so I think about it all the time about, wow, where are we heading towards this? Like, how is Trump becoming Terry Crews' character?
Starting point is 00:03:20 You know what I mean? Like, we're moving towards that. But Her made me think about that a ton. Well, Her, I feel feel like was a precursor to like all the Black Mirror stuff where you're like- Very much so. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:03:30 Like Her could have been like the best expanded Black Mirror episode ever. Like the one that like won every award and everything because it really took it to the next level. But even Black Mirror, it still feels very like kind of sci-fi to me, Black Mirror, when I watch it. I mean, it's not that I can't relate to it or I don't find the people to be people,
Starting point is 00:03:49 but there was something about her that felt like this is really, they talk about movies being in the not-too-distant future. This really felt like it was in the not-too-distant future. Slice of life. Yeah, pretty much. There's a last thing I'll say about it because we've got to get into a story. There are countless times, times where i've been in new york and i watched people come up out of the subway just looking at their phones texting and i'm like that's that movie yeah
Starting point is 00:04:14 that's what that movie predicted four years ago would happen and it's happening that's what we've become that's what you look at any street scene and it's filled like people just looking at their phone no one's looking at anyone else they're looking at their phone they're not interacting right now yeah we'll talk about other projects that you have coming up because you constantly work and and rightly so but let's jump into a story right here we go ready yes sent by seth kirk at movie seth 26 thank you seth solid ending to your name there as well seth kirk could also be someone's last name like dave seth kirk that's true i, like Dave Seth Kirk. That's true. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:04:47 Daniel Seth Kirk. Captain Kirk's nephew. Or he could be a wide receiver from Texas. He's on the ship and he's like, where is Seth? I had to bring him on this thing. Seth's in the mail room. On the Enterprise. The Enterprise mail room. Get him out of the thing!
Starting point is 00:05:02 This is one of these stories in town that I'm going to tell you guys right now. It's kind of gross and off-putting, but no crime involved. It's just one of the dumb things that happen in our town. A lot of dumb stuff happens. A woman removed her belly button and gave it to her ex-boyfriend as a present. Is that a Van Goghian? Removed her belly button. There's no ring missing from that sentence? No. Removed her belly button and's no ring missing from that sentence
Starting point is 00:05:25 No Removed her belly button And gave it to her ex-boyfriend So she had an outie She had an outie They're saying removed To cover up a very gross thing that she did Right
Starting point is 00:05:36 Like you don't just take off your belly button No You have to carve it out You gotta spoon it out Spoon it out You need a melon baller I need a melon baller. There's a melon baller I got to get.
Starting point is 00:05:48 What do you need it for? Did you know that I was trying to. We haven't bought honeydew in about a year. I don't know where he's going for the melon ball. I was trying to explain. My kids started to talk about. My youngest daughter was starting to talk about Van Gogh. And we were talking about it as I was driving her in gymnastics. And she's like, what did he do again?
Starting point is 00:06:05 It's like he cut off part of his ear and mailed it to his girlfriend. Yeah. He mailed it to Mike Tyson. To me, I think what's amazing
Starting point is 00:06:13 is back in that day that he, in that day and age where there isn't like a stamps.com, he got the correct postage. It's unbelievable. Because how heavy
Starting point is 00:06:23 is an ear? You don't know. It's like, what do I put on? There's no weight for the ear. Like the ear goes, there is an ear? You don't know. It's like, what do I put on? There's no weight for the ear. Like the ear goes, there's no ear weight. It comes back to you
Starting point is 00:06:30 because there wasn't enough and you're like, do I care about this the way I cared about it? I put a one-frank stamp on it. Well, body modification fanatic Polina Casillas Landeros
Starting point is 00:06:42 from Mexico Sounds like a form of from Mexico underwent numerous surgeries such as a back corset which involves piercings on either side of the spine and a split tongue. She later decided to have her
Starting point is 00:06:58 belly button as it was she later decided to remove her belly button as it is quote what makes us human what i don't think that's what makes us human no longer wanted to be human yeah no yeah i um before she gave belly button doesn't seem to me to be the part that makes us the most humanizing part of us so here's a question i would ask matt lesher just if i saw him today. How is the season of Narcos Mexico going right now?
Starting point is 00:07:27 That's a question. This could be a story. I would never ask him, how's your back corset going? Right. But this is like, this does sound like
Starting point is 00:07:35 a spoiler for this season. Right? Oh, shit! Episode 8! El Chapo gives his belly button to his mistress. Yeah. In that context, you're like, adorable, right? Give a little El Chapo. Yeah, button to his mistress. Yeah. In that context, you're like, adorable, right?
Starting point is 00:07:46 Give a little El Chapo. Yeah, he went out of his way. Well, she removed hers before giving it as a present to her then-boyfriend, Daniel Ramirez, in 2015. Do you wrap it? What do you send it? I feel like it's something you can hang around your neck. Right, but I'm saying, do you put it in a tiny Tiffany's box? I think so.
Starting point is 00:08:05 You are the boyfriend. Your response, even though you're horrified, try to sell her that you like it. Here, I got this. I brought this for you. What is it? What is this? It's organic. It looks very pungent.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Yes. Open it up. I'm looking. You can't get that anywhere. Hold it. There's only one place. Okay, I'm taking it out. Hold it. It's round. You can and take it. I heard it myself. I'm looking. You can't get that anywhere. Hold it. There's only one place. Okay, I'm taking it out. Hold it.
Starting point is 00:08:28 It's round. You can't return it. It's pretty hard. There's no Amazon. Do you like it? Do you like it? What does it look like? Do you like it?
Starting point is 00:08:36 It kind of looks like your belly button. Yeah! Oh, my God! Do you like it? Your voice got really high. You do? I love it. I love it. I love it.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Love it. Are you sure you love it because you're not like... I'm going to replace my belly button with this. I thought you were going to react a little differently. Really? It's a big deal that I did this for you and he's not even standing up. You know he didn't react enough. Well, following the removal three years ago,
Starting point is 00:09:01 she says she ultimately regrets her decision, describing it as reckless and impulsive. Yeah. But the back corset and the split tongue was okay? You took the one thing that made you human and you gave it away. Wait, don't monkeys have belly buttons? You're like Marcellus in Pulp Fiction. That's what was in the briefcase, his belly button.
Starting point is 00:09:19 If that was true, I would love that. The HR intern and tourism student. Have you ever heard those words together? She's an HR intern and tourism student. You can study tourism. I guess. So tourism, super exciting. You travel around.
Starting point is 00:09:38 You see the world. HR, the opposite. Human relations. Hey, she's a person who likes extremes. She's the one who has to book the conference room for the sexual harassment seminar that the company has had. The HR intern and tourism student said, quote, I have always had problems with my family. I was not very close with them at the time. Do you think this brought you guys back together?
Starting point is 00:09:58 Oh, now it's making sense. I've always had problems with my family. She's literally removing her only connection to her mother. Right. She's cutting the final piece of the cord. She's literally removing her only connection to her mother. She's cutting the final piece of the cord. Deep taking it out. Deep. Body modifications fascinated me. There's something very
Starting point is 00:10:12 transcending about them. That doesn't even make sense to me. Quote, I was very angry. I wanted to cut all unions from everything and everyone. Just change your name. Yeah. This is the most Meisner thing anyone could ever do. I wanted to dehuman meisner thing anyone could ever i wanted to dehumanize myself in a symbolic way i wanted to do something controversial you know what that that

Starting point is 00:10:59 Jeez. Quote, I underwent an operation, which is in quotes, which means not an operation. Done by a professional. is in quotes which means it was not an operation done by a professional not in quotes that part should be in quotes
Starting point is 00:11:10 because no professional should sign off on that we do everything from liposuction to belly button cut ups but he gave me very bad advice on how to take care of the trauma so it got infected if a guy or woman is willing to take your belly button off for fun,
Starting point is 00:11:28 don't expect to get good advice from them on any level. Well, you know where I go for all my surgeries? Mexico. That's where I go. If you're already there. Narcos, Mexico. Quote. Narcos, Mexico.
Starting point is 00:11:38 It's not a place. It is. It is now. It's a hospital show. It's basically a general hospital. Yes. Ghost Mexico. Quote, I was suffering.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I spent days in bed as if I were quarantined. I couldn't stretch, push, stand up, or laugh. Really, when you think about it, taking your belly button off is the worst place to get an injury. You can't do anything. Can't breathe. Everything moves. Can't stand up and laugh. She can't laugh.
Starting point is 00:12:04 And she seems like someone who laughed a lot She goes I quote I talked about her situation with her family I love to laugh I love Quote I mean you take that away from me
Starting point is 00:12:15 And what do I have Who am I Who am I No wonder she was She wanted to Yeah No wonder she wanted to It gradually healed
Starting point is 00:12:21 I'm just a belly buttonless morose person It gradually healed itself But not 100 Per cent Two words in this article Then she said it will never close Entirely Those are emotional and literal wounds
Starting point is 00:12:37 Can she smoke out of it? That's not a trick She puts like that talking thing She puts a dip in there Is it a Super Bowl party trick? I mean, like... It's not a trike. Right, but maybe. She puts like that talking thing too. She puts a dip in there. Yeah. Is it a Super Bowl party trick with her now? If you can eat out of it
Starting point is 00:12:49 or smoke out of it, you're going to end up in Ripley's Believe It or Not. I thought he was talking about like chewing tobacco dip. I did too. I almost said...
Starting point is 00:12:57 Oh, yeah. She's just... Throw some school bandits in there. It'll feel real good. She's no longer human. She's a spit cup. She likes snuff now.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Paulina, or Paulina, said she knew she wanted to give the body art to Daniel as an ultimate token of love. By whose standards? First of all, even if they're just yours, you need to check by what someone else's standards are. I'm going to tell you something right now. I've been married for 14 years. What someone else is saying. I'm going to tell you something right now. I've been married for 14 years. I know that the thing that my wife is going to get me,
Starting point is 00:13:29 I will probably return. Yeah. Once in a while, I don't. And that's pretty great. And no one's feelings are hurt or anything. No. Like, you can't return. You can't return a belly button.
Starting point is 00:13:38 You can't return a belly button. I mean, there's only one place you can take it to. Or like, what do you get for that? Like, store credit? Yeah. Like, you're not going to get the full back. What love language does this fall into? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:49 What? A piece of yourself. This is what I would tell my daughters. This is what I would tell my kids. When I think about you, I cut myself. That's sad. No, but this is what I would tell my daughter. If anybody cuts off a body part and wants to give it to you,
Starting point is 00:14:03 get out of that relationship. Oh, I was going to say they're the one. Is there any acceptable body part? I mean, like a... Fingernail. Anything that's like you think, well, maybe... By the way, Van Gogh, I'm going to go back to it, cut off his ear,
Starting point is 00:14:19 and he is one of the best painters ever. Those don't have to be related. If you did Van Gogh, ear probably comes up first in the Google search. Like, it is one of the things. I can find out for you right now. It is one of the things. You do it, Dan.

So I think what we've learned today is that Kanye West is a crazy girl in Mexico. Yeah. Lucky. He's literally at that level. She said, quote, I was very much in love with my then boyfriend. He supported me through many difficult times, and he is one of the most influential people in my life.

I didn't ask for no belly button. I didn't ask her for nothing. I was buying some main jangle cheese, and she rolls up, and all of a sudden here I got a belly button
Starting point is 00:16:26 in my goddamn arm. I mean, Aaron Rodgers wants to send me one. That's okay. It's all right. But for Christ's sake. I mean, I do love him. Him and I are young and dumb. I'm part order of the Packers, and I don't know why I suddenly have a belly button in my arm. She says, quote, I put it in a small bag along with a note

Like when you go to turn it on and it says season one, episode one, you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, I already watched season one with Narcos. No, this is Narcos Mexico.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Yeah, yeah. A few familiar faces pop up, but for the most part, it's all new people, and it's really, really good. I love that. I just love that. People love season one. It was a big, big, big hit for Netflix. And two.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Of Narcos. And now we got Narcos Mexico. Yeah, it's rad. All right, let's see this. Okay, you guys ready? This is the after. All right, this is see this. Okay. You guys ready? This is the after. All right. This is what it looked like.
Starting point is 00:17:47 And I just realized. Am I going to be afraid to see this? No. It's not that bad. This is what I'm going to see before I die. It looks like her belly button's out of focus. But what I just realized is the tattoo, which I did not realize before, which is perfect for someone who cut their goddamn belly button off.
Starting point is 00:18:04 And also it's true for every woman and man. It says, my body, my choices. My body, my choices. Do you think that came after she was sick of talking about the belly button or before? I think it's an after. It's an after. I think it's in shape. It goes with it.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Because what else is it referring to if the belly button is there? That's true. Well, I remember she had needles in her back. Is it weird when she's in this? button is there. That's true. Well, I don't remember. She had needles in her back. Oh, right. So she was making choices. Is it weird like when, you know, she's in Mexico, but the tattoo is in English. Shouldn't that be in Spanish? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Mi Cuerpa. Did we say she was in Mexico? She is in Mexico? She is Mexican. She's Mexican. So why is she getting English? I don't know. Why do all these white dudes walk around Chicago have Asian words on them? Mi cuerpo, mis decisiones.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Is that it? Yeah. Good for you, Rand. Well, that explains it. It was too long. Okay, now we're going to look at this. This is what she had taken off. She would have run around to her back darts.
Starting point is 00:18:59 This is what she had taken off, that navel, that fuzzy navel. Oh, God. Am I wrong? Okay, so on an earlier episode, there's a bar up in Halifax where- Yukon. The Yukon, where there's a petrified toe- That they put in a drink. Put in a drink, and you drink the drink and kiss the toe.
Starting point is 00:19:20 That is sort of like a thing that people do. I know. It's disgusting. But we would all do it. Should this belly button, shouldn't it exist somewhere at a bar? Dan, I would not do it. You wouldn't kiss the toe? When I was 23, maybe I would have done it. Would you kiss
Starting point is 00:19:34 the toe? Absolutely not. Imagine yourself you end up in this bar, you're with your friends. I wouldn't do it, Dan. Come on. Absolutely. We also did a story where a woman cut her labia off and made it into a necklace. I think that was the Tom Segura episode, but I'm not for sure. It was a bracelet, but then if you rubbed it, it became a necklace. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Come on, Jason. Okay, ready? Here's the after. This is what she handed Daniel. And as a Daniel, I could say I would look at this and go, nope. Nope. Ready? Oh.
Starting point is 00:20:02 And why is there a star in it? Did she try to decorate it? It looks like She tried to decorate her belly button with a star It didn't keep well It's kind of Not what I expected it to Yeah, you got to put it right into
Starting point is 00:20:13 What is that? Formaldehyde if you want it to keep well It looks like a coral It looks like It looks like that one That one french fry That gets down in the grease for like a while And it comes up and it's like really brown
Starting point is 00:20:24 And you're like Is that Can we eat that? That cheese that goes off the edge of the grilled cheese and really, really heats up. Are we allowed to eat that? The answer is no. Probably you're not. You really shouldn't. Fruit leather of some kind.
Starting point is 00:20:38 It is like a fruit leather. She said about Daniel, he has kept it and will keep it forever because he knows the meaning behind it. No. What drawer in his house is this in? And when you get a new girlfriend, what are you going to be like? I'm not interested in her, but I got her belly button. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:54 No, you got to give it back. I got your belly button. I got your belly button. I literally have got it. Where is it kept? We don't know where it's kept. He doesn't say. I'm going to get Daniel on the line.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Paulina. Junk drawer. Junk drawer scissors. It's right next to a sharpie without a cap on it. My old pocket knife. Do you have a junk drawer in your house? My house is nothing but junk drawers. She could have a Mexican girl's belly button. Absolutely. 100%.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Hey, there's my SAG card from 2003. And her belly button. Polina says that her relationship with her family has now improved. Good for her. Well, I do regret it when I put myself in my mom's position. It must have been devastating for her. She was so sad, she said. Quote, I can't imagine how it must feel,
Starting point is 00:21:42 your own child wanting to break all their connection to you. You just cut your goddamn belly button off. You didn't run away. I wouldn't be sad. I'd be afraid. If my kid did that, I'd want him tested. A belly button closes in a door open. If I could go...
Starting point is 00:21:56 That's the pillow this time. If I could go back in time, I wouldn't do it again. It was impulsive, reckless, and I hurt a lot of people. She really is putting a lot of weight onto this belly button. It's not that big of a deal. I guarantee you, you're the only one who thinks about your mistake. Even though I did it for the wrong reasons, it has now taught me I should think things through before acting,
Starting point is 00:22:16 and it's a nice reminder that characterizes me. I mean, I'm glad this helped you learn about thought process. This was the reminder you needed to think things through it was there wasn't something like
Starting point is 00:22:28 if you made your hair blue for like a month and everyone was like that wasn't a great idea maybe I shouldn't be so impulsive that's how you do it agreed
Starting point is 00:22:39 that you don't cut your belly button out I'm gonna ask you guys this though how old is Polina Casillas Landeros? Too much fun leaves marks in life.

Starting point is 00:25:03 oh love it. Badass. He's a real dude. He's a real dude. Is he really? Did you meet him? I did, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:11 He lives in Laredo, Texas. Really? Yeah, old school. Have you been to Laredo? I went and saw him down there for two days, yeah. Amazing. Yeah. Can I just ask real quickly, do you feel more of an obligation to play him right?
Starting point is 00:25:25 Or did he give you, not right, but down to the T of who he is? Or did he give you license to be like, play the essence of what I was trying to do and you do you? He actually never said a word about it. He was really cool that way. Really, the story is about Kiki Camarena, who was the DEA agent who was tortured and killed in the mid-'80s. And it's really the thing that kicked off the war on drugs.
Starting point is 00:25:46 He was his good friend and colleague, and he wanted his story told right. Does he love Narcos just as a show, or what's his attitude towards it? I mean, it's probably bittersweet. Yeah, that's exactly right. Wrapped into horrible memories. Yeah, he's got so many bad memories from that time
Starting point is 00:26:03 that I doubt he's watching our version of it very much. But he knew it was a vehicle. Still lives in Laredo. Yeah. Well, he's a Texas kid. And right across the border from Laredo, Juarez. Is that Juarez? No, that's in El Paso.
Starting point is 00:26:16 That's El Paso. No, but Laredo is like right there on the border. Yeah, it's on the border. Nuevo Laredo. Nuevo Laredo. Got it. We had a friend that grew up there and used to like go. Eric Friedman, our buddy, his wife, Katia,
Starting point is 00:26:27 like we used to like when they were teenagers would think about this, knowing what you know kind of about that area. As a teenage girl, someone who maybe would cut her belly button off, I don't know, but like for a boyfriend. We'll find out. Would like go with her friends and cross over into the Mexican side and just go out. Well, you know, I lived in the Detroit area.
Starting point is 00:26:46 We used to go over to Windsor all the time. So it's really... Same thing. You get it. You drew on that a lot. Yeah. It was rough. I don't want to get into that.
Starting point is 00:26:56 Talk about bad memories. I know. Okay, ready? Yes. All right, Tony, get your answers right now. Because Paulina Casillas Landeros is 23 years old. Oh! I said 24!
Starting point is 00:27:09 Way to go! Way to go! I kind of knew her. She was like, she's on the edge of being able to do that. That was... She was 20 when she did it then. It was three years ago. Right, so it was three years ago.
Starting point is 00:27:19 So I was right. Yeah. So you were right when she did it. Right. I was right about The inflection point I think either A 20 year old does this Or like a crazy
