[0:00] This is just a few days before the release of the Prime Video series The
[0:05] Greatest, which chronicles the life of your husband, Muhammad Ali.
[0:10] Uh, and a very narrow part of his life. This isn't a retelling of his entire
[0:15] life story. It is more about the origin of, I guess,

[1:14] feature films on here. Um, there's been all types of
[1:16] documentaries, books, um, there's a plethora of information out there about
[1:21] his life and his career. Um, what are you bringing to the table
[1:24] in terms of obviously your own personal relationship?
[1:28] But is there information that we're going to learn from the greatest that I
[1:31] didn't learn from
