Silo on Apple TV

So the blind-date scene was set in the near-to-our-future, after one little dirty bomb in DC, and the revenge strike on Iran is what pushes the world into mass bio-chemical warfare? Or was it a normal war and it's totally safe outside after all, except for the safegaurd pipe gas? And the congressman saw it coming with enough time and wherewithal that he built 50 silos in his home state and put his voice into the AI? And now we're 350 years later ca. 2400? What does the PEZ dispenser have to do with it?
wasn't it mentioned she went to Oregon. so when he panic bought at the gift shop, he bought a duck pez dispenser.. now why it was still around, maybe just a coincidence?
