As the US Nears 250 Years, What Was Happening in the Bay Area?
As our nation nears its 250th anniversary, we reflect on what was going on in the Bay Area at the time. In 1776 California was newly part of the Spanish colony that would later become Mexico. The summer of 1776 was also pivotal in San Francisco’s history: construction started on the Presidio and Mission Dolores was founded five days before the Declaration of Independence was signed. Most of the local population consisted of Indigenous people and some Mexican settlers. The people, ecosystems and coastline were dramatically different. We look back on the Bay Area in 1776.

Four's a Crowd: Olivia Wilde and Edward Norton on 'The Invite'
What happens when an ordinary dinner party becomes a reckoning for a marriage? That question drives “The Invite,” a new film directed by and starring Olivia Wilde. The film follows a couple whose tense evening with their transgressive upstairs neighbors forces them to confront questions about desire, jealousy and whether it’s possible to have a new relationship with the same person. We’ll talk with Wilde and co-star Edward Norton about their six-week workshopping process; working with relationship expert Esther Perel; and the freedom to improvise and shape a story whose ending audiences are already debating.

Gad Saad on ‘Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind’
Is there such a thing as being too nice? Can concern for one person lead society to undervalue a crime against another person? Podcast host Gad Saad says our culture has been gripped by what he calls “maladaptively irrational altruism,” which has led to coddling violent criminals, branding self-defense as toxic behavior and valuing criminals over victims. He says that is not only not humane, it’s an active dismantling of the pillars of our society. Hear more when Gad Saad talks with Michael Shellenberger on an all-new Commonwealth Club. Saad’s new book is “Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind.”
