Warped Zone is a podcast on scifi, philosophy, religion, politics, gaming and anything else taboo. Run by Benn Banasik and Tara BM Smith, two PhD studies of religion candidates with a shared love of good coffee and cats.

On episode 3 we speak about TempleOS, a computer Operating System solely developed by Terry A. Davis and the short story ‘Axolotl’ by Julio Cortázar. We also speak of engaging with others through the lens of the philosophers Martin Buber, Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida. Tara finds a bird, Benn and his worst and best day ever, plus we try to understand the Incel movement.
