Danielle unlocked a new level when it comes to cuss words lol! I absolutely love this beautiful couple and the fact they have remained together throughout everything and are here today setting history straight! This whole family is full of such beautiful souls!
Like Jo said it wasn't always easy especially in the early years. I know what she's talking about. I went through the same thing with my husband and his brother that was single. I finally had to have a heart to heart with him about taking my husband away from the family on the weekends. We both worked and that's the only time we got to spend with each other and our kids. He apologized and we always included him in everything we did and we all ended up closer because of it. I ended up caring for him in our home until his death and still miss him every day.
Billy and Jo do more than just answer questions. They also give you what it was like and personality it was like just being around Elvis. Anyway thats what I think.
You can always tell real from fake. You guys have always been 100% genuine and real. I have always believed every word spoken from you. And there’s no denying your love for Elvis!
You are right. They are 100% real. They really love Elvis. I love all their stories. Mr. Billy & Ms. Jo, can you please tell us who among Elvis band members was the most loyal to him (aside from Charlie Hodge)? Thank you.
Welcome to an evening at the Smith’s house. I felt right at home with the yappy dogs. I like the way Billy includes the dogs in the conversations. Here we sit @ the dining room table… Keep the stories coming. ❤️. Thanks for the tribute to Anita Wood Brewer. AND the good LORD blessed you with a good crop.
Hey Jo and billy .. thanks for sharing your memories , your heart for Elvis and your openness .. always a joy listening .. Danielle .. thanks for helping out with the hard work to make this all happen ! Appreciate you all!

Hi Folks. Brilliant video once again. Thank you all. You are all so like, distant relatives these past yrs, your like a breath of fresh air to us all i guess. Thanks for sharing your life with us all on here also. Condolences to the Brewer Family, RIP Anita. What a lovely lady you where to all in your life. May the sun always shine on your Name. My thoughts and prayers to you all. xxx
Thank You Billy,Jo and Danielle for the video. Danielle, I like how creative you were by disguising your words! 😂it’s a cute puppy name too! Looks like Wanka is jealous of the other puppy 😊 and wants to be held also. Billy and Jo , we do not mind the interruption of (The Phone or puppies or what ever)That’s what makes your videos very true, real and for us fans we feel part of Elvis’s family as well. Thank You for sharing Elvis memories. Arrivederci!
Hello to all the Smith family, I loved today's visit with you all, thank you for including Elvis fans into your lives. When I was young, I would ask my dad about the good old days and thats what it feels like when you talk about your life with Elvis. Sending you all hugs. Happy 4th of July to everyone! 😊 Grace and Alain from Canada ❤
This was a great conversation with Billy and Jo’s insights. 🥲 Question: before fame, was the family aware of the special charm and magnetism Elvis radiated? Or did that come when he started performing and raised the roof! So glad you’re willing to share your stories, thanks!
Fun video I hae a good laugh at the Lamar story. The dogs going nuts reminded me of Elvis in Paradise Hawaiian Style when he was in a helicopter full of dogs going nuts It's A Dogs Life.
Hey EFMers.....I've just finished for the second time Guralnick's set of books. Billy and Jo were mentioned many times and I have such affection for your RU-vid channel. Thank you so much for still wanting to let us into your world. Big Kiss to you both. I'm just so sorry I wont be there for Elvis Week. So many of the events are sold out so I'll be there in September.
QUESTION: Was wondering if Elvis ever met or hung around with Clint Eastwood ? Could you imagine if Col. Parker would of allowed Elvis and Clint to make a western or a cop movie together ? Love the dogs !
Your dogs are being dogs. Anyone who has a problem with it needs to take a good hard look at themselves. I appreciate the down home feel the videos have. It's like we're all just sitting around visiting.
I love watching your videos. I'm always in a better mood afterward. I'll keep asking this question but I don't want to be a pest about it. How much did Elvis know about his ancestry?
I love that you ate all so real! We feel like we are at home with you all! I didn't think that Elvis was crazy about Dee. I heard she tried to redecorate Graceland when Elvis was away! He came home and was furious with her! Maybe that was the last straw for him! Plus, loving his mother, he must have been upset with Vernon for replacing Gladys!
Great video Jo, Danielle, and Billy! Love how Elvis and Jo ended up having a good relationship in the last years. Thanks again for sharing your memories.
I love your videos love hearing these lovely stories about elvis and his family, and the dogs don't bother me i think its cute them.wanting to join in ...
I've read Larry Geller's book and he told a story that happened in palm springs about one night him seeing a UFO near his house. Awesome video guys love y'all God bless y'all 🙏 ⚡ TCB ⚡
Do u stay in contact with Linda. I am so sorry to hear about Anita’s passing. Is there any stories about her U would like to talk about her? Thank u for sharing wonderful stories with us. God Bless Anita’s Soul and May She Rest In Peace. I love u all so much!!!!!! Gorgeous Gardening veggies. Ruth Jesse loves u so much and looks forward to hearing from u each time.
Y'all are so great! The fact that you are just yourselves, dog shenanigans and all is what I love most! You're so genuine🥰The love and relationship between Billy and Jo is inspirational!❤️ God bless you all!
Thank you for the stories of Elvis and sharing your life with him. Family is family, no matter what. You were blessed to know him and share your life with him. One and only Elvis that God blessed us with. Thank you so much. God bless your family.
Y’all realize that y’all were talking about UFO’s and Aliens when your little Pug jumped up there? The same kind of dog in “Men in Black” that was an alien. Did she time that right or what? Maybe it was a sign. 😂 I love y’all’s videos. God bless ya’ll. I bet Elvis is up there smiling. 💜
Awesome video thank you for sharing all of the wonderful memories of Elvis. Love seeing the puppies they are adorable 🥰 Danielle love your top it’s cute. Have a happy and 4th❤
Thanks Danielle for helping Jo and Billy share there stories. I sit back and try to put myself in there place back then. Love you all! It is amazing how much Jo and Billy remember. I can't remember anything from last year
I love listening to stories about Elvis from Jo and Billy. I wish they would make a movie from your stories because then we would know that it's the truth. Danielle, I really like having you there asking the questions as well. 😊
Thank you guys for your dedication to the memory of Elvis. I watch your show because to me this is where I find the truth. One question I have is who took care of Lisa Maria when she was a newborn? Was Priscilla main caretaker or did she have help? Thank you and God bless.
I've listened often to Elvis sing Solitaire. Elvis was prone to ups and downs his entire life but did Elvis have Depression? Thankyou Billy and Mrs Billy❤
Hi Danielle Jo and Billy! Thanks again for another great video 😊 your dog's are so cute ❤ my question is did Elvis have a favourite song that he recorded ? One of his own? Thanks ! Sending you all love 💙💙🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺
Question: Have y’all seen any of the reactions to Elvis by people for the first time? If so what is you’re reactions? And did Elvis ever wear clothes more than once? Thanks! Look forward to y’all’s video each week. Thanks again!
It is so good to hear about Elvis. Your baby dogs are fine they are your family just like my Beagle, Debbie Gracie, is ours. Billy was Elvis's favorite they grow up together. Have a nice night. Stay safe. I really enjoyed myself. Thank You.
Thank you so much for all that you've done to keep Elvis's Memory alive I love to hear the Life stories that billy and joe Tell about the life with elvis that they have had 😢verything is so down to Earth Thank you so much for sharing everything. The sad stories, happy ones and the hard ones. The funny ones. And Even the crazy ones. You are All amazing Down-to-earth Joe and billy you do not try to be above others Love that you show for elvis shines and everything you All talk about You're just human Down-to-earth, people, people., and it shows, thank you again. God bless Hopefully, someday I will be able to meet you. At 1 of your.😢 Talks such a gift during Elvis week. Or in other time that you can do that. I love your videos I love hearing everything. Thank you, thank you. In 20 fifteen, my Youngest daughter and Her husband took me and my husband to graceland it was all my bucket list of one thing that I always wanted to do and They made it possible for me to go and see. When I've seen graceland for the first time. It was at 1030 at night. And my son-in-law told me whenever he told me to turn my head left and look. To do it, we've been going down elvis presley boulevard I turned my head and Grabbed my husben Chan. I looked and all I could think of I grabbed my husband's hand and said a minute. I've seen that graceland that that my words were. That boy really loved his mama, and it sure does show. Once again thank you so much for the videos and sharing life With Elvis May God bless and please keep up the videos. I love them. Love and respect. From my little place on Earth in Indiana.
Billy and jo and daneille you’re videos are amazing fantastic and awesome too watch I love 💕 those stories about elvis and I love 💕 the elvis stories because I find them so interesting I always live elvis Elvis fans matter tcb tlc tce 🕺⚡️⚡️👑👑⚡️👑9:56am thanks tcb ⚡️5:17pm
I would love to know Y'alls thoughts on the red living room furniture. Linda Thompson said that the red furniture was definitely not her taste .. I feel that the Red Furniture should have remained because it was there when ELVIS died . Do you know if ELVIS liked the red ? Or did he dislike it ? Thanks for always shareing your memories of ELVIS with us ... I'll share your post ..❤
Don't ever apologize for your pet babies being out of line Please. They are part of your family. I have two small dogs and they are always having disagreements. I love seeing your pets.
I completely understand the doggies we always had two or three and I enjoy you guys you are down to earth and don’t put on something you’re not congrats and best wishes to your family! Enjoy your videos and you are true family
Thank you for another great video. It would’ve been very hard trying to balance family commitments and working for Elvis because from what you say he could be very demanding but your kids come first and you both made the right decision. Also you would’ve heard by now about the passing of Anita Wood last week. RIP Anita. I think Elvis made a mistake breaking off his relationship with her for Priscilla. Keep up the good work. Your fan from Oz.
I Love listening to all your stories about Elvis he definitely was a hoot what a wonderful soul Elvis was. Wanda wanted to be seen too lol I have one just like her named Sofie can't wait to hear more stories love you guys have a Blessed Day ❤
What do you think about the book "Destined to Die Young, by Sally Hoedel? I read it and found it very interesting. Just to remind you, she says that Elvis had health problems all over his body> He had the mega colon, glaucoma, severe arthritis, high blood pressure, and a lung ailment. She says he inherited these genes from his grandmother, Doll and her husband. She says that the first cousins married, and this fact Caused Elvis to inherit a lot of ailments, and she says that the drugs probably did not help, but that he probably would not have lasted much longer anyway. She also says he took them more when he was performing, so he could perform up to his standards. I just wonder what you think about that, and may I say, Billy, that you are lucky that maybe you did not inherit the worst of the Smith illnesses.
I'm very interested in their thoughts about the information in the book also. I read it and couldn't imagine how Elvis performed with all he had to deal with healthwise.
I love your family’s honesty! Looking forward to meeting you all in August 11 and 12 4-6. Was wondering if Billy was in the limo in June 24 77 when Elvis broke up the fight in Madison Wisconsin? Thank you
Hhhaaa love the natural videos guys 🤪 you shouldn’t have to explain to people about the dogs ect, it’s real life and they should appreciate that you’re doing these videos for them..Thankyou all for the videos xox love from Australia 🇦🇺💓 keep them coming 😘
Jo talking about Elvis Trying to make up for what she had to go through in the earlier years made me get choked up.Elvis had a conscience and a loving heart.Thank you for the video so much please keep making them!Those vegetables looked so good!😋❤
QUESTION: How did Gladys and Vernon discipline EP when he was younger? I understand when he was older that him and his mother would get into some heated arguments; EP wasn't much of a disciplinarian regarding Lisa. Would appreciate your insight. Appreciate your down-to-earth approach to your videos and Danielle facillitating the storyline. All the best!
I do love your videos by the way, I think I’ve seen everyone of them I like see unrehearsed feel of the whole thing it makes you feel like you are right there in the room with them
