Alan Saunders of The Philosopher's Zone One of my favorite podcasts is an Australian Radio show called The Philosopher's Zone, but I have to admit that I was surprised to discover that host Alan Saunders shares my passion for the work of Joss Whedon, especially Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The March 29 episode is a discussion of the philosophical aspects of the BuffyVerse with James B. South who edited Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Philosophy: Fear and Trembling in Sunnydale (2003). The episode is called "Buffy the Concept Slayer," which is kind of a lame title, but it is still something Buffy fans will enjoy. However, it is not an episode someone new to the show will find very enlightening.
