  We are in the era of the Pauls. Love them or hate them, you can't ignore them. Welcome to our Universe. 
  I’ve never personally said the words “F*** the Pauls”... but plenty of people have. My sons have spun this mantra into multimillion dollar empires. To me, it captures the wild and often chaotic era we live in, and how my sons turned some of their biggest losses into their most legendary wins. 
  Before they were stepping into boxing rings, wrestling in the WWE, and breaking the internet with viral stunts, Jake and Logan Paul were just two kids from Ohio with big dreams and a camcorder. As their mother, I’ve seen it all—the highs, the heartbreaks, the headlines, and the hate. Faith in God, unshakable positivity, and a whole lot of resilience haven’t just helped me hold on to hope for my family, they’ve kept me sane in a digital era which is a dangerous place. 
  This is the story of what really happens when your kids become famous overnight, when the internet turns against you, and when you have to hold on for dear life as your kids build empires, battle legends, and redefine entertainment as we know it. 
  Part memoir, part cautionary tale, “F*** the Pauls” is an unfiltered look at our journey—the struggles, the triumphs, and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. So buckle up, because life in the Paul household is anything but boring.

  At a personal and professional crossroads, a man resets his life and finds sobriety, love, and 618 bird species, cycling his way to a very Big Year. In Birding Under the Influence, Dorian Anderson, a neuroscience researcher on a pressure-filled life trajectory, walks away from the world of elite institutions, research labs, and academic publishing. In doing so, he falls in love and discovers he has freed himself to embrace his lifelong passion for birding. A North American Big Year—a continent-spanning adventure in which a birder attempts to see as many species as possible in twelve months—is a massive undertaking under any circumstances. But doing it on a bike while maintaining sobriety? That’s next level. As Dorian pedals across the country, describing the birds he sees, he confronts the challenges of long-distance cycling: treacherous weather, punctured tires, speeding cars, and injury. He encounters eccentric characters, blistering blacktop, dreary hotel rooms, snarling dogs, and an endless sea of smoking tailpipes. He also confronts his past struggles with alcohol, drugs, and risky behaviors that began in high school and followed him into adulthood. Birding Under the Influence is a candid, honest look at Dorian’s double life of academic accomplishment and addiction. While his journey to recovery is simultaneously poignant and inspiring, it is ultimately his love of birds and nature that provides the scaffolding to build a new and radically different life.
