Each show is unique, from what I see in the comments. I feel like he’s not doing the traditional ‘write a set’ thing, but he works backwards from an idea (“America feels like a Dollar General nowadays”, for example) and has the ability to conjure an hour of almost shaggy-dog-story material on the spot leading you to that endpoint.

Rare talent.

In landfill, but not as raw material. If you didn’t already know how to make bronze, for example, you’d have a hell of a time making new bronze based on old contaminated remnants.

The argument has been made that, even if another intelligence arises in 100 million years, there are multiple problems for them: the Sun will be burning hotter by then, easily accessible raw material will all have been used up (Cyprus is no longer covered in surface-level raw copper, for example), we’ll probably irradiate the surface on our way out, etc.
