Can someone explain why wordpress uses two column for storing time values?
The post_date is the post_date_gmt after the Timezone value (in Settings) has been applied.

GMT is the timezone all other timezones are offset from while UTC is the time standard. In most practical applications they’re interchangeable. The problem you’re probably … Read more
WordPress detects the wrong timezone
