Premise
Writer Dan Harmon, creator of Community and co-creator of Rick and Morty, has his assistant Spencer Crittenden construct a time machine/cloning machine to effectively transport historical figures from the past so he can interview them for the History channel. Due to the constraints of the machine, the interviewees only survive for a few hours before undergoing a "total protoplasmic disconversion" and collapsing into dust, which Spencer collects in a jar.
