[@wetblanket1977]

You guys are a national treasure! Thanks for letting us fans in your amazing life and hearing all these great stories of Elvis and family. ⚡TCB

[@myelvischannel1992]

Wonderful stories from Billy and jo. Like Jo said it's like being invited to your home and sitting around the table with you. Thanks to all 3 of you for a great Video. 👍👍👍

[@pambb5743]

Love you guys so much! Billy, you are a treasure for the Elvis World. You’re the closest thing we have to Elvis. No one alive knows the things you do and to top it off, you share his DNA. God Bless you all.

[@bonniebrown6960]

I love these stories. ❤🥰 I could just picture all of this happening. Thank you Billy, Jo, and Danielle. After I watched this video last night I fell asleep. I had the crazy dream. I dreamed that my family and I was going to an Elvis concert and I guess it was at the Omni. Then all of a sudden I was in the car with Billy and Jo. Jo was driving and Billy was in the middle and Jo told me to wait awhile because Elvis wouldn't be ready right away. I was sitting in the backseat of the car and then the next thing I know... Elvis is in the front seat on the passenger side holding Lisa Marie in his lap. He turns around and says, oh hey Bonnie I didn't know you were going be here tonight. It felt just as real...!! Hahaha...!!! 😄 What's crazy is Lisa Marie is the same age as me right, but in my dream she was still a little girl and I was my age that I am now. I can remember exactly what red light were at and something broke at the stop light and it broke something Elvis had. So he couldn't go on stage until we got that fixed for him. Haha...!!🤣🤣🤣 Oh my goodness...that was a crazy dream, but I woke up feeling good this morning all because of that dream. 🥰❤ I wasn't going to share this, but I thought what the heck. Might as well. 😁 Love ya'll....!! ❤🥰🥰🥰

[@sandralybrand9425]

I love when y'all freestyle( when the memories start coming and one story reminds you of another) love y'all so much! Y'all are a treasure!

[@sandralybrand9425]

I watched All the Kings Men also. What you say is very true Billy. All the guys did have their own perspective. But the Main thing that came through was that to the man Everyone of you Loved Elvis! That's what counts! The author Alana Nash said when she was writing her book that the ones she interviewed would tell a story and everyone of them had a different perspective on the same story!

[@kathy73160]

They acted that way after being chastised After Elvis died. They changed their tune. Sad.

[@margareta249]

​@kathy73160 The memphis mafia loved Elvis. No d9ubt about that. They were all protective of Elvis. They would have took a bullet for him. I have all the kings men. Loved listening to it. Elvis loved all the guys.

[@blessedmum655]

Thank you again for sharing your private time with Elvis. I always enjoy your stories. If you look at the video from the beginning I saw a few more orbs shining around. Always get goosebumps when I see them. To me its Elvis letting you know he is with you.

[@jamesburrows6226]

You see Billy lighting up telling the Elvis tanning story and shows how much love billy had for Elvis and still does after all these years. Great video

[@crystalwiggins5674]

Did Elvis like Engelbert Humperdinck? And my whole family and I just love y’all!

[@Elvis_Pond5]

❤️

[@gracieg7601]

Jo and Billy - we play Elvis trivia every Saturday night with Ashley of Ashley’s adventures on you tube. We speak of yall fondly allot.

[@tomahawkinsucka1574]

Was Billy invited to work on the book with Sonny, Red, and Marty or no? If not, had he been invited to would he have done it in an attempt to help Elvis? Thanks

[@QueenCreole77]

Good question

[@cindyswift8455]

Gosh I love your stories! Funny money story - Did Billy ever ask for a raise? Surprised Elvis wasn't a wee bit afraid of catching a cold or flue virus when kissing girls. After all, I'm sure he didn't want to miss a concert. Loved Jo's Ringo comment - WHAT a hoot! Shocked that the colonel didn't try to make some money off the Beatles's visit. Here is my question: Did Priscilla ever meet Ann Margaret? If so, were either of you present? If so, what was that meeting like? Fascinating to learn about Billy's criminal ticket history (ha ha)!

[@delilahmorrow4606]

What a good time you had with Elvis. You went places , meant celebrities, concerts , so exciting. So many different things & places you would never have gotton if it wasnt for Elvis. Elvis has made so many of us happy one way or another from him being here on this earth. Made a good living & still is for so many.

[@MattJ1977]

Question for Billy: There supposedly was a confrontation at a gas station in Madison Wisconsin 1977. Today there's a plaque there telling the story of Elvis breaking up a fight, it was 2 on 1, then out of the Limo came Elvis. Anyways, was Billy with him?

[@traceyslade3877]

Thanks for keeping E alive. Billy, I understand you were with him alone a lot towards the end, when would you sleep and how did Jo feel about the amount of time you spent away from her? You both must be extremely patient and love each other immensely to live your lives with and around Elvis the way you have. E was a huge presence and still is.

[@michelleevans4948]

Jo you had no reason to be jealous of any of the female Hollywood stars. Why were you not a movie star , your were ( and still are ) so very very attractive ! Natural beauty I must say

[@rhondamoine4550]

I had to rewind and watch Jo's impression of Ringo several times. I laughed harder each time!!! Great story!

[@LIVEGOOD-PAUL]

Just curious, who inherited Vernon's estate when he passed?

[@LindaD68]

Love these Q & A’s! Love how one memory leads to another one! 😊. Please Billy & Jo keep telling about your lives with Elvis forever!! Such treasures you both are! 🤩 😍. Thank you, thank you very much!, 🥰❤️. TCB ⚡️🕺👑

[@jeffpowell5071]

Well said Linda !!!

[@LindaD68]

@@jeffpowell5071 ~ Thanks Jeff! 😌 🤗

[@MsTee7475]

My question: ARE ANY OF YOUR FAMILY GONNA SEE THE NEW ELVIS MOVIE COMING OUT 6-24-22?

[@RAZOR844]

Billy and Jo, if Elvis’s mom Gladys would have lived longer, would she have been able to influence him in positive ways? Eric Herrera fan for Life

[@Epfanarchive]

Billy did you ever hang out at the gate with the guards and what was the procedure for someone who came to the gate who wanted to see ELVIS and wasn’t expected?

[@lindaadams3850]

Does anyone else see an "orb" come in above Jo's head at 9:38-9:39? I totally believe they're spirits, seen too many of them not to believe otherwise.

[@DianeWard-rs2ks]

So wonderful how TCB was a real family style business ! Great times for working hard to take care of Elvis

[@shelsd3]

The two of you are so very special to the legacy of who this man was. Thank you.

[@gaylewilson5076]

Thankyou for these great memories, it's so wonderful that Elvis is remembered after all these years 💚💛💜 his spirit is kept alive xx

[@juanitawolfe9841]

Hearing Laney at the end really lifted my spirits! She is such a sweet, intelligent, funny little girl. Thanks Laney!!

[@efmelvisfansmatter1129]

She said Hi!!!!!

[@gracieg7601]

Yes I live Laney at the end too. That little sweet voice. It’s so sweet.

[@suelott9612]

I LOVE Laney at the end....She is a BEAUTIFUL little girl. ...looks like her Mother..

[@RAZOR844]

Billy and Jo, whatever happened to Elvis’s pet Chimp “Scatter?” Thank you for giving us fans insight to Elvis the human being.

[@LadyOaksNZ]

Oh my... its a blessed feeling to be hearing y'all sharing these special EP memories. It gives greater insight into how really down to earth a man he was. It's a pity Lisa doesn't visit with you - your family is as about as close to being near Elvis as she and her kids will ever get. Sending prayers for your continued good health, blessings that the Lord meet all your needs. Love n hugs. 🙏🙏❤❤

[@Elizabeth-dw6lc]

I agree, but why is that? Pricilla seems to be in charge of everything. Personally I think she poisoned her daughter so Lisa would only know her version of events.

[@crystlfaith921]

Couldn't agree with you more on this one! This is a blessed example of a real southern family...love you guys 💘😻💜

[@markyoung6005]

Question for Billy...my all time favorite original memphis mafia member...can you talk about the time Elvis met Elvira mistress of the dark, cassandra Peterson...I met Elvira a few years back and she talked about meeting Elvis....

[@BobE316]

Love this video Billy & Jo, it's great to hear these stories coming from people that were there and that will tell the truth.....Love the story about The Beatles meeting Elvis.....I have a couple of questions...1) The night before Elvis passed away, he went to the dentist. It's been said that the dentist gave Elvis codeine, but it's also been said that Elvis was allergic to codeine. If those stories are true, why did his dentist give him codeine? 2) When The Beatles met Elvis, did they do any music together, like a jam session?

[@pilartena4648]

Em faig la mateixa pregunta, perquè el dentista li va donar codeina, si era al·lèrgic??

[@kathysharpe7339]

Hi. ❤️Was John Wayne at Elvis' funeral?

[@irishgal353]

Billy & Jo, you were sooooo lucky to have lived that life with Elvis traveling and meeting all the singers and stars❣️. I would have given anything to be able to have worked for Elvis just being a gopher to experience what you have all those years❣️. Your stories are his legacy and wish you would write a book about your years with Elvis for his fans to cherish and remember❤️😘 Keep,on doing what you are doing with the stories and making us laugh❣️ Happy New Year and good health for 2024…….we love you🥰. P.S. I just bought the book you recommended “Elvis Aaron Presley, Revelations from the Memphis Mafia” Can’t wait to start reading this book. It is so big❣️❤️🥰😘

[@bernicemyers674]

I enjoy the REAL STORIES of Elvis. Thank you for sharing 💜

[@learn2fly605]

Did Elvis like walking into stores or places unannounced to see people's reactions? Did he ever use a disguise?

[@SarseeDGLover]

The karate in real life question reminds me about the concert where 4 men got on the stage and only 3 of them were stopped by whoever was on security and one went up to Elvis

[@vivmatto725]

Hi there ... I absolutely thoroughly enjoyed your video ... huge fan of elvis loved him all my life ❤ so lovely to hear all your memories I'm a new sub so will be looking forward to seeing your posts ... sending much love your way from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤ xxx

[@danmckeon3847]

Thanks, Billy. Tell us how Elvis met Lamar. Did Lamar climb the fence, and Elvis liked him and let him stay?

[@gracieg7601]

What a character he was. You just have to smile. He was so beautiful.

[@Marr-in-Memphis]

Liked✅ Subscribed✅ Comment ✅ It’s Sunday January 30th. I pray Laney is recovering from Covid & that the rest of you have been safe. Every time I watch a video filmed at your home, you make me feel that I’m right in the room. I’m sitting in a chair with a bottle of Pepsi, listening to you sharing stories. Your style of vlogging is perfect for storytelling. It’s a blessing that you have the KZbin platform & Danielle’s expertise to reach out to fans. When you mentioned social media, I wondered how Elvis would react or feel about cell phone cameras. With the general population having access to snapping pictures & filming videos, would it have caused him to be more of a recluse at Graceland? Thank you for ALL that you do for Elvis fans.

[@efmelvisfansmatter1129]

Thank you so much!!!! -Danielle

[@sammyandoliver7522]

I just knew it would be a noncommittal answer. It always is on both channels.

[@Elvis_Pond5]

❤

[@sandybarr684]

I know its impossible to have A favorite, but i was wondering what are some of your favorites of Elvis songs, or favorite songs to watch him perform. I so love watching him in that white suit at the 68 special sing "If I Can Dream" He just appeared to be so connected to that song. The emotion was off the charts. I still get goosebumps every time i watch it. And I love to listen on youtube to all the different takes of different songs where he just cannot control his laughter. His laugh must just have been the best thing in the world when with him.

[@pamfrank3962]

It is wonderful that we are able to share a personal side to Elvis through their willingness to share of themselves. Thank you 😊

[@nigelwilson1957]

Love your video on elvis great stories billy and jo keep elvis stories keep lovely video go take care

[@vilmamoro1809]

Love "sitting around the table" with you, listening to your Elvis stories! It's so fascinating! Love the part when Billy says that "Elvis's lips started to get bigger" kissing all those women, made me laugh! My question would be why did Elvis like his bedroom "freezing" cold?? If it's true! Thanks for sharing your Elvis time with us! Bye from Italy!

[@lynnelovett8999]

Love hearing your stories of Elvis. And to get to know him as a man and not just this big time entertainer. Be safe and well.

[@karynd1756]

Hello Billy, Jo, and family. I just love all your videos. I was just wondering, If you are interested in seeing the new Elvis movie, that will be coming out this year, and what your thoughts are about another movie coming out about Elvis? Thank you for all the great stories. Karyn

[@kirkleythomas9280]

Billy, when y’all rode motorcycles or the three wheel cycles in Memphis, where’d you go? Just around Whitehaven or into downtown Memphis??

[@karensparks2509]

Love all the stories. I like your hair Jo. Very pretty on you.

[@greatscottsartstudio8042]

Absolutely awesome Job!!! We love watching y'all 😁😁😁👍👍👍

[@donnap587]

I have a question, when driving from place to place for concerts, especially in the early days, how did Elvis and the mm know how to get there? Did they use maps?

[@PennysLifeWithLove]

I don’t always comment but I always watch. I feel like a part of the family because you all make us the Elvis fans feel so welcome. I would love to be able to meet all of you one day. Iv been to Graceland three times and I see something different each time. I not only visit Graceland I try to find places that Elvis had history of being at . Thank you all for being there to answer our questions . It makes me feel like I’m rite there with you during your stories . I love you all xoxo

[@lanaclerk6371]

Thank you 3. Loved the discussion. I really laughed about you being at the pool. I can picture Elvis in his pajamas and robe all leaned back with only his face, hands, and part of his chest exposed. I really laughed when you told about him saying " well thats enough of that " after 15 minites. I can just see him jumping up and saying that. Funny!! Again heard that clock chime-----really enjoy that cause it definitely makes me think of Elvis. What a great gift from him. Love you all. God Bless

[@williesmall3855]

I love these vidios aint nothing like hearing it from the horses mouth lol lol these vidios are all over that Elvis movie

[@davidpickren9736]

Awesome Video folks. Thank you. Billy since the wifes were left at home sometimes have you told Jo everything that ever happened on movie sets, things that happened after concerts ect?

[@user-ds5qk8kj6s]

What would bring Elvis to tears about people that disappointed him and what would bring Elvis to happy tears?

[@jonspagnolo787]

Great video! Question: have you all ever been back to Elvis’ Horn Lake ranch? Do you know who owns it today and what is currently going on with it? Hope you all are feeling better and God Bless

[@lisap3344]

Love your hair Jo ❤️👍🏻

[@mattthegooner1076]

Hi Billy and Jo, I have a question for you. Elvis appeals to so many different people of all ages and incredibly he is still as popular.I have heard he was worried that he would be forgotten if he ever stopped making music/films did he eber speak to you about how he felt about this? Love what you are doing with your channel. Love it Matt from Upwell in U.K😀

Hey Billy and Jo! I'm a 17 year old Elvis fan and I have a serious type question. What were your feelings on Red and Sonny West writing the book that they wrote after they were fired from Elvis' group. Why were they fired? God bless you guys!

[@jackhopkins4679]

What effect did the book Red and Sonny wrote about Elvis have on him.I love your videos your are country folks just like my family may God bless you.

[@lesleypilling9517]

I am so thankful, as I’m sure we all are that you take the time to share your precious memories with us. Would have loved to have seen the look on that police officers face when his superiors gave him that ‘talk🤣’. I listen to you 24/7 ❤

[@gracieg7601]

I think the love and moral support he received from y’all was so important to Elvis. Thank you for always being there for Elvis. Y’all are such A great family.

Awww! I am a new sub I am so happy I found Ya'll!!! What a wonderful story about Elvis!!! SO Enjoyed all the stories!! Thank you for sharing your stories about Elvis!!! I loved the one about him out tanning LOLLL

[@richardeidemiller6739]

This was one of your best videos, very in depth. Thank you for sharing the stories. Vicki

[@ToniMorrell]

Dear wonderful Billy, Jo and Danielle. I love you! I quite simply love you! Your genuine, loving, fascinating recollections of life with Elvis are beyond priceless! I originate from the north of England and have been an entertainer throughout Europe and these great United States of America for (cough!) years. So knowing the entertainment business as I do, I especially appreciate your complete lack of pretension and your joyful humility. Finding this video today was a great gift. From all my research on Elvis, it became obvious to me that, when the roar of the crowd had faded, and the stage lights had gone down, his cousin Billy and his beautiful wife, Jo, were - above anyone else - right there for him until the very end. Coincidentally, I have just finished reading a book which concluded with "The Pledge" between Billy and Elvis. Can anything more be said about how deeply Elvis loved and trusted his beloved cousin, Billy. Thank you for this "chat around the table." It's an honor to watch and to listen to you. With deepest respect and love - Toni Morrell

[@bethlewis8731]

Thank you for the upload ❤️ always love listening to you guys stories ❤️luv when Jo said Elvis didn’t need make up with a face like that ❤️ AMEN JO AMEN ❤️😁 Great seeing you all healthy and happy 😊 Danielle your always so sweet I miss seeing Laney ❤️❤️ Billy Jo luv y’all so sweet family ❤️

[@gracieg7601]

QUESTION- was Vernon’s funeral held at Graceland like Gladys and Elvis ?

[@learn2fly605]

Did Elvis always pay for everyone when he went on vacations and did he ever talk about money, good or bad? ie: money problems?

Hello Dear Smith family, loved this video. Every time you answer viewers questions I'm on the edge of my seat, because maybe my question will be answered this time and I have to smile, in anticipation. I love hearing about your life with Elvis, you have such fun memories of days gone by and you always love to laugh while telling us about them. Thank you, Grace from Canada

[@efmelvisfansmatter1129]

Alain- hi, sweet friend! What’s your question? I try to get them all down? -Danielle

[@alainfortin7087]

Hi Danielle, oh my goodness, thank you dear. My question was if you could tell us something about Dear Ms. Gladys as Elvis loved her so. This is Grace here my husband is Alain. Thank you miss Danielle 😊 💓

[@kimpeters9983]

Billy and Jo, Over the years with the many dogs Elvis, Priscilla and Linda had, were any of them given free range inside Graceland and especially were they allowed in Elvis' bedroom? This question was asked by a fan to Danny at MMK but he could not answer it. Miss seeing you both with Danny and Joey. The fun you all had together was awesome. My favorite Elvis movies are The World's Fair because my mother and brother were there and Blue Hawaii. I have a double deck of cards my mother purchased while at The World's Fair. Thank you for sharing your memories of Elvis with us. Danielle, thank you for all you are doing to make EFM happen. God's blessings to you all. Kim P. from Pennsylvania

Love your channel and love hearing all the stories from people that actually “lived it” .. also love that my daddies name was Billy Smith also 💕

[@charlescurry4957]

Jo, Danielle, Billy, I watch each video at east a few times. I did see the recent movie and had many of the same exact opinions you and Jo have! I did agree with the excellent final scene! That was bout it! Question: Other than THIS IS ELVIS!, Is there another movie or mini series that you have that is more factual from 80’s or 90’s? Another question after seeing the 3 Elvis movie critiques, where did Tom Hanks get the idea that COL Parker had a European accent? Where did this idea come from? Thank you all so much for doing these!

[@deniseharkrader3980]

Thank you for sharing these stories with us. It really is like being invited in to hang out with the cool kids and hear all the stories.
