Omg Knox!
You definitely caught my attention with this one. I used to frequent the Stud just a few years after you… as well Hamburger Mary’s. And once almost ventured into the neighboring leather bar when I was denied access to the Stud one evening (I think it was my 19th bday lol). But as an underaged suburban “punk”, the elderly gentlemen in the assless chaps weren’t really my crowd. And coincidentally enough, Candice Vadala was the sister of an old time Napa friend of mine. Small Universe. I recall watching a few of her films as they were touted as “feminist sex posotive” porn.
the Stud, Poppers, Hamburger Mary’s and Candida Royalle. Now I may want to find that book. Marie

Hi Marie – I didn’t know Candice had a sister. Or if I knew, I forgot. You might enjoy this post from a few years back: https://knoxbronson.com/podcast-farewell-candida-truest-of-friends/
I hope you are doing well. Great to hear from you!
