Discover ‘Ali in Me’: A Groundbreaking Audio Series Celebrating Muhammad Ali’s Life of Service

Mercury Studios, in association with Treefort Media, is honored to announce the release of a groundbreaking new Audible Original, Ali in Me, available on January 23rd. The series delves into Muhammad Ali’s profound and lasting impact beyond the  boxing ring through his own words from never-before-heard audio of Muhammad Ali, rare archives and personal recollections from his widow Lonnie Ali, her co-host and Muhammad’s close friend, John Ramsey, and special guests including Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Killer Mike, Billy Crystal, Common, Laila Ali and Bob Costas, among others. 

The eight-part series highlights Ali’s unwavering personal conviction to be good and do  good through his generosity of spirit and selfless commitment to fighting injustice. The series pays tribute to a man whose life continues to resonate deeply, offering lessons in courage, conviction and the power of using one’s platform for the betterment of humanity.

“Our vision for this podcast is to fill the void left when we lost Muhammad,” said Lonnie Ali “More than ever, the power of Muhammad’s example, along with the simple truth of his words, can help uplift and inspire humanity.”

​“Muhammad was the best example of the human spirit I’ve ever witnessed, said John Ramsey.”  “He lured me in with his athleticism, but by watching him spread love so unselfishly, I learned a new definition of being a man. He was a champion not just of boxing, but of humanity.”

The series draws listeners into Ali’s world using a fusion of rare and exclusive archival, original music, sound design, poetry, and intimate conversations with special guests.

​“Our intent with the series was to provide Lonnie and John an elevated creative vehicle for exploring Muhammad Ali’s unparalleled humanity and sharing their deeply personal recollections and insights,” said Barak Moffitt, Executive Producer and Head of Mercury Studios North America. “We are profoundly grateful to all the contributors who shared so openly, and to Audible for supporting this vision.”

The series was created by Lonnie Ali and executive produced by Lonnie Ali, John Ramsey and  Josh Wakely for Grace: A Storytelling Company.
