“Hey! I had sex in that pantry!” That’s what I said to Madrone Art Bar owner Spike Krouse, grinning as we passed through the kitchen of his apartment, which is connected by a secret staircase that leads to the venue he owns downstairs. This was not the first time I’ve bragged to Krouse about my lustful dalliance in his larder, but it is probably the first time I’ve seen this place since the licentious act occurred at a Halloween party in 2006. Back then, the apartment was full of rambunctious 20-somethings who threw raucous parties and staged naked photo shoots (not necessarily at the same time, but really, anything is possible). Settling down over some mezcal at his living room table, we begin to chat about the much-adored downstairs bar that Krouse has helmed since 2008. While there, I can’t stop myself from marveling at what a difference 16 years and some semi-responsible grownups can do to a place. What I foggily remember as the type of giant, quirky, San … [Read more...] about How a Western Addition pharmacy became one of SF’s most cherished party bars

Another piece of automotive history is going up in smoke: Next year will be the last for the Hellcat, the badge that Dodge and Jeep use for models with a supercharged V8 engine rated at 707 horsepower (or more). Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis has announced plans to end the production of the 6.2-liter V8 engine in 2023, as the brand plans to ramp up production of an electric muscle car in 2024. It’s an untimely end, if you appreciate internal-combustion mayhem. The Hellcat has been an unlikely success story since it arrived in 2016. Named after an American WWII aircraft, the Hellcat engine was from the outset, the largest factory engine in a production muscle car, and larger than one in any Dodge vehicle ever made, with integral charge coolers and an electronic bypass valve. The idea behind it was to set fire to any idea that Dodge built boring cars. It worked. Since its inception, Stellantis has sold somewhere in the high tens of thousands. Hellcat became a pop culture buzzword, dropped in … [Read more...] about The Twilight of the Hellcat
