David Duke, Bloody Knife Feature in Next Episode of Tenured Cynic’s Hopeful Podcast Set in Chicago

Chapter 11 of ‘The Little Girl Book Podcast’ named for BRPD narc impeached at LSU

Baton Rouge, LA — February 5, 2024 — An incident at LSU involving a bloody knife and a future KKK grand wizard makes literal headlines in the next installment of author Jeremy White’s The Little Girl Book Podcast. Starting Friday, February 9, listeners can hear White narrate Chapter 11 of The Little Girl at the Bottom of the Picture: A Journey of Selfless Discovery, White’s memoir detailing how his wife, Edie, discovered her biological family in 2018 and the insanely beautiful, transformational journey that ensued.

“Chapter 11’s namesake, Gus Tabony, was impeached as a member of LSU student government in 1974 for being employed by Baton Rouge Police as an undercover agent, and he haunts the nightmares of Edie’s birth father to this day.”

“This is where we learn how Edie’s pacifist father came to be cited in two books about David Duke by challenging the Nazi with a bloody knife at LSU’s Free Speech Alley,” White said of an incident depicted by his media center’s header image, as printed on the front page of The Daily Reveille in 1969. “Additionally, Chapter 11’s namesake, Gus Tabony, was impeached as a member of LSU student government in 1974 for being employed by Baton Rouge Police as an undercover agent, and he haunts the nightmares of Edie’s birth father to this day.”

White adds that he’s excited about the opportunity to share their “unicorn of a story about love and forgiveness that the world so desperately needs right now.” Citing his book’s preface, the author notes, “In an age characterized by sickening inhumanity, this work celebrates the best of our humanity. Transcending issues of genealogy, The Little Girl appeals to readers seeking empathy in a divided land, and authentic beauty in an increasingly ugly world.”

In lieu of a traditional audiobook, the tenured cynic is narrating his hopeful book in weekly episodes, each one covering a chapter from White’s retelling of how Edie solved a mystery that had been plaguing a gangster-adjacent, Ukrainian American family for 65 years. Nearly a dozen chapters recount Jeremy and Edie traveling on COVID’s eve to Seattle, Austin, Chicago, and California wine country to meet her far-flung new folks. The Little Girl Book Podcast is available for subscription on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts, with new chapters arriving on Fridays.

White Lines Press published the ebook and 468-page hardcover editions of The Little Girl at the Bottom of the Picture on July 1, 2023.

Baton Rouge, LA — December 4, 2023 — White Lines Press is now streaming The Little Girl Book Podcast, which features author Jeremy White sharing his new book about his wife discovering her biological family in 2018 and the insanely beautiful, transformational journey that ensued. The Little Girl at the Bottom of the Picture: A Journey of Selfless Discovery details how Edie White solved a mystery that had been plaguing a gangster-adjacent, Ukrainian American family for 65 years, but only after initially learning that her pacifist father is cited in two books for challenging David Duke with a bloody knife at LSU.

Published on Friday, December 1, Episode 1 covers “CHAPTER 1: Three Suits—All Aces,” which opens with the author describing Edie seeing a picture of her biological father for the first time. After revealing to listeners how he walked away from two decades of satire and football officiating to focus on his first book, Jeremy explains why, when their story’s reluctant hero decided to lead this emotionally daunting adventure, he vowed to be by Edie’s side in what would become their beautiful journey.

The opening chapter then tells how the future Marine Corps officer candidate and Naval Reservist met at LSU in 1991. Listeners also learn about Edie’s adopted family, the O’Neals of Maringouin, Louisiana. Jeremy later notes the irreversibility of submitting one’s DNA—which Edie does solely for the benefit of an unknown woman—and the perils that accompany such a decision, before preparing listeners for “the greatest, most surreal, transformational experience of our lives.”
