Welcome back! Hope you all are having a blessed Sunday! Here's today's video-- more of your questions!!! Keep sending those questions in! Take care and God Bless!
I do not understand people who disagrees with Billy and Jo. They're not in it to gain anything, never exaggerate events, say when they don't know, and speak candidly yet lovingly about their famous family member. There's not the slightest hint of ego in their stories. I remember seeing an interview with the very sensible sounding Sam Thompson once, and he was asked who to believe of EP's old crew, and he answered "Billy Smith" knows him best, and was the one Elvis loved the most. I so enjoy these videos, they feel so good to watch, there is no sensationalism in them, they're warm and friendly and feel like the funnest family to be a part of. Heartwarming to watch. It makes me quite queasy to think of how Billy was left out to dry after EP¨s passing. Lots of love to you all and what you do.
Love you two ❤️ First of all, I think Vernon treated you dreadfully after Elvis died . He made sure his side of the family was taken care of .My question is : what do you all think about Prissy putting out this new movie about herself . From what I've heard about it, I will Never watch it even for free, and was she always so greedy ?
If I'm going to believe anyone I'm going to you Billy and Jo you were there right to the end .God bless you both and Danielle for keeping Elvis memory alive
Just want to especially THANK Danielle for all her hard work on this channel! She is so great with her questions and keeping the channel organized. She is sweet, smart and I love her interacting with her grandparents in getting these questions answered! I think all families need a question and answer time as this is a way to know history of a family or family information to the younger generation! I also like this relaxed forum that you guys have in these videos! My hats are off to Danielle for all she does with this channel! Wish I could get to Memphis-Tupelo area for an Elvis week celebration as only was to Memphis area and Graceland years ago but really felt that Elvis Spirit in Graceland and Sun Studios! Hope this channel continues well into the Future with all of Billy, Jo and Danielle’s input! ⚡️💕
Thank you so much!!! I truly appreciate that!!!! I enjoy these videos & I honestly learn new stuff about the family with all your questions! Love you all!!!! 💜💜💜-Danielle
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Would you ask Billy if he traveled with Elvis spring of 1975 to Monroe LA. I worked at the airport when Elvis flew in to sing at Monroe Civic Center.I got to meet him .
Thanks for saying that Billy yes you do know a lot about Elvis I’m sure he felt he could tell you and ask you things that he wouldn’t do with other people around him as he felt comfortable with you and Jo as family usually is with at least a few family members! I give Billy and Jo a lot of support as I am sure they were some of the closest people he wanted to have by him especially in those last years! Always enjoy these videos and know you guys went the distance with Elvis! Thanks for being there for the KING TCB Always, ⚡️💕
I appreciate the stories. I like the way you all do your videos because it's like having a front row seat to your life stories with Elvis. Have a great week.
Billy & Jo, I almost fell out of my chair from laughing so hard when you were telling about Elvis shooting the toliet. Ya’ll are great. Danielle; you are so sweet! Thank you all!
Part of Elvis's charm & charisma was that, for the most part, he never got above his "raising," so don't let the haters get you down, your fellow southerners will always have your back! Thanks for sharing these tidbits with us. God bless ya'll. 👑🤘
First I would like to say, Jo your hair looks very pretty today. I was actually typing before you even said anything about wearing a wig. Lol. Second I would like to say is you lived your truth, and you know what you know, and you were there, people have no right to say your lying when they were not there, and know nothing. Love all your videos, and all your wonderful memories, and your honesty. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Jo was blessed with a great head of hair and I think it's beautiful no matter what color. Although the lighter color suits her and I'm so jealous! I'm stuck in salt n pepper and wish it'd turn all grey or white.
" I don't know everything but I know more than she does". I spit my coffee out on that one! Lol. Boy I love you guys. We need a contest. Win a date night with Smiths.
Thank you for answering my question about Elvis shooting up the commode 😂 I had always wondered why he did that. I appreciate you all so much and look forward to your stories every week. Danielle, good luck on your surgery and I 🙏🏻 all goes well with a speedy recovery ahead for you ❤ .
Hi Billy, Jo, and Danielle, I just love hearing anything and everything about Elvis and his family. God bless you both with good health for many years. Danielle, good luck with your surgery. We hope for a quick recovery. ❤
So many people just watch things and take what is said or done and try to make something offensive about it. When nothing like that was ever intended!If you are watching just to criticize just take that little finger and scroll on! Jo and Billy try to be nice with everyone and most respect them. You always have a critic somewhere! Pay no attention!Love your sweet memories!Praying for you Danielle think God will be right with you❤❤❤❤❤
Love yalls videos and hearing all these wonderful stories about elvis ,ignore the haters we all know yall lived with elvis and knew him better than anybody else ever did and I'm so glad yall are able to tell these wonderful stories and share yalls memories that you had with elvis, I've learned so much more about the human side elvis from both of yall... us elvis fans thank the both of you for taking time out of your day to bring us these videos each week and share yalls memories with us.. Have a blessed day and week both of ya..
I agree with everything you've said! Nobody knows someone better than family! Especially when they spent most of their life with him, up to when he passed. I feel like we get to know Elvis the man through his beloved family.We wouldn't really know him without his family, because most everyone else has a one way of looking at him and most have an agenda.(to make money) Billy and Jo tell us the truth,the good,the bad and ugly.
Love you all and pray you all are doing well. Thank you all so much for making these videos ❤ Naysayers need to leave all of us who love Elvis and the Smith family alone. You all bring joy, laughter and sometimes tears to my eyes. God Bless all of you. ❤🙏🎶⚡️
QUESTION? What are your feelings about the new priscilla movie. If it's anything like the one she made in the 80s. I wasn't particularly fond of that. How true was her story about Elvis. The more time goes by I'm feeling she is more about the money. What do you think. Thank you for your Show make god bless your family
You're right to defend yourself Jo. If one loads both barrels expect both back. I always learn something from your wonderful stories. Keep up the great videos !!
Danielle, I wish you well with your upcoming surgery, and you will be in my prayers. Billy and Jo, I thank you for your videos. Please don’t worry about those negative people, they aren’t worth your time. To the viewers, please stop the petty negative comments. I finally got to meet these folks a couple of months ago during Elvis week, and I can tell you that I have never been treated more kindly by anyone than I was treated by Billy, Jo, and Danielle.
I love your show. Never miss one. I can’t imagine anyone questioning what you say about how it was. All the rest of us have opinions. You have the facts. Thank you.
Good for jo you and billy was there you should know more about elvis I have heard alot of negative about elvis and do not believe it when I went their I looked up and the stains are still.their great question and video
There are so many troubled and unkind people that have nothing better to do than be negative. If anything, as a 50 year Elvis fan, I believe you are absolutely justified to be more frank about individuals that you two and Elvis knew. There arent two individuals left on this planet that can document the events of Elvis' life. This is so important. Thank you, TCB.
Thank You Billy, Jo and Danielle for the video. Jo yes! you are so very nice warm person, we had the pleasure to have met you this past Elvis week We had a conversation as we knew each other for many years your sincerity and welcoming was a great feel. I just want to say that some people that make negative comments Most ! of the time is :Jealousy,ignorance ,weakness and have nothing better to say . Also, by someone saying that “you think you know everything about Elvis! I and sure ! You know more then us viewers as we read about Elvis in books magazines and second hand information oppose to You Billy and Jo who lived close to Elvis and are family So it’s like hearing it right from the “horse’s mouth “ so do speak. With this being said. We enjoy your videos and watch every Sunday and continue telling us true stories about Elvis Danielle good luck on your surgery and speedy recovery. Arrivederci!
Thank you for all you do too keep the memories of Elvis alive I love your wonderful channel you have a life full of great memorieso you lived thank you for sharing your story s of Elvis
Hi billy im johnnycolwell its just so neat how everyone can communicate these days so i hooe you see this message. Im 53 yrs old an have been an elvis fan most all my life. Ive watched every documentary with you red sonny marty lamar an the whole elvis gang. But you're his 1st cousin an was with him since you probably was a small child an you knew him as the biggest star to someone you could just act goofy with. You went through ups an downs with him , So i wont keep on i just wanted to say hello your the closest ill ever get to saying hi to elvis. You also are a great person trying help elvis over the yrs but its hard help someone when they wont let you help them. Have a great day an keep on doing what your doing telling stories about you an elvis
LOL Jo, you’re hilarious! Elvis said and Jo says : I don’t know why anybody wouldn’t like me! 😊. I’m a likeable person and real nice! 😍. And that’s so true about you both! 🕺🏻 💃. You tell ‘em Jo! 🙋🏼♀️. Love you Jo! 🥰.
I appreciate you sharing your experiences you had with Elvis with everyone. Without your insight and sharing, most or almost all of us Elvis fans would not have knowledge of Elvis except on stage, on the movie screen or his albums. ThankyaThankyaVeryMuch !!!
Hi Billy ,Jjo,Danielle ! I. am a fairly new subscriber and I love your videos on Elvis. I have been binge watching them trying to catch up on them. They sure put alot of laughter in my day! Love you all and keep them coming! TCB xo
I absolutely love your hair Jo! I think it's just beautiful! And I must say, even on a "vent day" y'all still make me smile, actually, I was giggling at this one🥰
Don’t listen to those people. Of course you guys know a lot. To you all he was your family not just a famous person. You guys are wonderful and we love you all and appreciate your wonderful memories. This is as close as it’s going to get. So thank you very much and God bless you. I’m 46 grew up listening to Elvis my family members were big fans❤
Y'all are so funny and sweet. I met Ms. Jo at the restroom of the Courtyard she gave me the sweetest hug. She was beautiful she just glowed and smelled so good. As far as Mr. Billy goes Elvis was there he was born and Billy was there until Elvis's last day so maybe he does know everything about Elvis. Lots of love from Georgia. Hope to see y'all again next Elvis wk.
Hello to all the Smith family, Mrs. Jo your hair is just beautiful! Mr. Billy you look really cool in black and in your hat, you are a lovely couple. Mrs. Danielle you are a dear for all you do, wishing you well with your surgery and sending prayers for your speedy recovery. ❤❤❤ Grace and Alain from Canada
Jo I think your great! You and Billy and Danielle are great people. Jo that lady that is being rude; she is jealous of you. Thank you for all the work you do on these videos.
I would believe you before l would believe anyone else as you say why come on here if they don’t like what you say the truth just ignore them we all love your stories thanks for taken the time to tell it as it was xxx
There wasn't much publicity about Vernon's funeral - did any of you go or do you know who attended and who took care of all the arrangements for his funeral x
I remember an Elvis quote: MY FANS WANT MY SHIRT.👕 THEY CAN HAVE MY SHIRT. 👚 THEY PUT IT ON MY BACK👔. HE HAD SUPREME RESPECT FOR HIS FANS AND IN RETURN HE HAD ETERNAL LOVE WHICH REACHES BEYOND THE PORTALS OF DEATH.
Please do not listen to mean people ! Ya'll were family to Elvis and lived with him . Ya'll knew him and had first hand information on a daily bases . Love you both fot sharing these truthful and sweet memories .
Thank y'all so much. Have you ever met James brown, Jackie Wilson or any other famous people with Elvis? What is your most treasures gift that you still have from Elvis or Vernon.
I was so surprised to hear anyone would say anything bad about Jo (or Billy), and it made me sad. When I watch these videos it lifts my spirit because of their honesty, frankness and humor. Would be a dream to meet you! I am subscribed to your channel, but I never receive notifications and sometimes miss when they're posted. Is there something I need to do to get the notifications?
Thanks for another great video. I believe i seen most if not all your videos I neverherd you all say anything mean or nasty about anyone .Have a great week
Billy was with Elvis all his life he knows more about everything the public does so if you call them a liar they are not liars they know what they're talking about
Hi I love your channel keep up the awesome work.i am a big Elvis fan and a Fan of your channel. I am with you if someone doesn't like you then they don't have to watch you. I have been watching your channel for years. I seen Elvis every year in Las Vegas his show was the Best! Could I please ask for prayers I just found out I have uterus Cancer. God Bless you Much Love Nurse MJ
Hello Mr Mrs Smith, hope all is well with both of you. Mr. Smith do you still have your deputy badge that you show in the Memphis mafia group photo with Elvis. Thank you sir for taking your time in answering all of our questions sir. God bless you and your family
Hi Smith Family I listen to your channel because i feel you get facts from you all , You hear what they want to share with you and they keep very private parts to themselves which is only right. Both Billy and Jo only speak about the times they was front & center with Elvis and Danny always state when in doubt he have to refer to his parents for answers. Now there are people who have been in Elvis life who are consultants to a movie speaking on and about people, places and things they was never privy to knowing anything about, but they put their names and approval on the finish products just be relevant and too recieving💰. So To Billy and Jo continue to tell the truth about your family pass it along to your off springs for their own family history . For Jo sometimes in life you can be as nice as you can and still that is not enough so when you become 60 plus you've earn your right to do & say as you please unappolgetically and move on. Tyfs Be blessed.❤
The questions. Yes keep them coming. Remember you don’t have to answer the haters. I seen on Facebook some lady says you two are telling lies and didn’t know what you were talking about. I laughed my ass of. Nut bars. There all over. Love you guys. Canada
I have a bone to pick with you Jo about letting people get to you we know yall do know the truth about Elvis that's why we watch this channel we love yall ...you know how people are always a butt in every crowd . Yall keep up the Great work hats off to u to Danielle.
I think when the fan / subscriber / person was talking about Elvis using an air mask, and Jerry Schilling talking about it, they was referring to when the first day in 1964, that Jerry had started to work for Elvis. In a video, Jerry had said; Elvis had accidentally overdosed on sleeping medicine, they had brought him down stairs of Graceland, outside onto the front steps, and they had a breathing mask on him, supplying oxygen. He said he couldn't believe that this was already happening, and it was his first day on the job there, for Elvis. He said, Elvis did not look good, that they thought they was going to lose him, but they started to ask him (Elvis) questions, and he pulled through it. That's what i remember seeing on a video, of a different youtube channel, that has some documentaries about Elvis.
I really enjoyed the video and the way Jo responded to that woman's comment. Danielle I hope everything goes well with your surgery and recovery. Thanks for all your family does for us Elvis fans.
I have read Sally's book, "Destined to Die Young" and find it very interesting and actually highly complimentary of Elvis' dealing with his health struggles. She details several ailments that Elvis had relating to his genes from the Smith side of the family, including the liver problems that most likely killed Gladys. She agrees with you that Gladys was not a drinker, but that her liver problems were genetic, all stemming from Elvis' grandparents marriage and their being first cousins. Have you read any of this book? It does discuss early deaths in the Smith family, Doll's being bedridden for years, etc. She places a lot of Elvis' illness on genetic factors and she says, while he no doubt took too many prescription drugs, he needed the relief from his ailments to allow him to perform at his best. She says, even if he had not taken drugs, he probably would have lived no longer than 52 or so. I just wonder what your opinion is on this subject, as you seem to be one of the Smiths that has good health genes!
MEMPHISROCKS1; I Have A Question??? Do You Know What Happened To All Of The Cards And Letters Elvis Recieved From Fans Over The Years After Elvis Passed Away.??
