Upon a roof. A Cephalopod on a hot tin roof? Not a cephalopod, a breakdancing frog. And then the cemetery up the street and the real problem: the problem with the branches.

The Cephalopod is the brain child of Dr. Roy Baskind, a humble Paladin of reflexology and, occasionally, tuning forks. An experienced clinician of the neurological arts, he has been given the highest honour of the Grand Council of Neurologists, with license: a license to wear a bowtie. He is a passionate teacher whose grand round presentations are typically standing room only events, well, not so much in the age of Zoom, but you get the picture. He received his MD from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School at Dallas, with a side of corn bread and a big ole belt buckle that says “Doc.” He then drove a 1992 Toyota Camry from Dallas to Montreal — listening to neurology books on cassette tape all 37 hours — to begin neurology residency at McGill University and the Montreal Neurological Institute. He cured an addiction to croissants, and breakfast pastries more broadly, by moving to Toronto, where he has been at North York General Hospital since 2007. He is hard at work vivifying this Cephalopod, which his mother has called “the world’s greatest neurology podcast,” although she hasn’t actually heard an episode.
