I have a wonderful memory of Mother Osmond... in 1978 I had travelled fro England to Provo and knocked on the door of Riviera Apartments asking for Donny ( very brave for the very shy person that I was!). Mother Osmond answered the door and told me that Donny was at the studios recording but would I just wait a moment. A few minutes later she came back and said she had arranged for me to watch the taping of the Donny and Marie show that day and to have a tour of the studios! I have never forgotten her kindness that day xx A beautiful lady xx
What an incredible interview! Alan made me cry, quite a few times. His testimony and faith, with all the trials he has experienced (and in am sure there are many, many more that he didn't share) are awe inspiring. How different the world would be with more families like the Osmonds!
I love this. Their beautiful mom Olive and how they both talked about their mom and grandmother. So proud and so much love. Wow!! I so much enjoyed this video it sure opened up my mind spirit and heart to know that God loves all of us and he has a plan for all of us. We all are his children. So moving it moved my heart and I know there will be good and hard times God is always with me all of us and will never ever leave or forsake any of us God gives us free will. Thank you so much for sharing Amen. 😊❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🌷
Such a wonderful interview and understanding Mother Osmond by Alan and Nathan! What a wonderful lady and such a beautiful tribute to her. The story of the Military from Alan is wonderful. One of my most favorite albums is "The Plan", Thank you to The Osmonds for this album.
Words cannot express the impact Olive Osmond had on this world at this time of the world. She and her entire family are saviors on the mount. Blessed are their souls.
Awesome interview. Wonderful wise messages. Thank you Alan and all of your brothers, for your rare wonderful examples in show biz to hold to good principles and to honor your marriage vows and keep your marriage and families together.
Hello, I would love to meet you and your family , Boy do I have a story to share with you all, I am played your music and then a part of your life since I was eight about 1973, I feel like I know all of the Osmonds. I am a very faith living daughter of our Father in Heaven, I have lost all those I love and so I continue to look for wonderful people to rub shoulders with, Someday I would love to meet you and your family.
I am 62 years old and I have been in love with Alan since I was 13 and I finally got my picture took with him when I was 26 and he was so friendly him and Merill and Wayne they didn't make us feel as if we were being a pest to them and to this day I am a die-hard Osmond Fan I still love Alan but I also love Merrill Wayne Jay and Donny and I guess I will always be a fan of them
I admire the godly principles & moral virtues you keep on applying in your daily lives in the every Osmond siblings family. You are a great light & comfort to this crooked & perverse generation.
I met mother Osmond in 1977 when I knocked on the Osmond’s door to bring Jay Osmond birthday cake. Mrs Osmond was so kind and sweet she didn’t know me but she treated me like she knew me. Wonderful woman to have met in my life. Kathleen Stofko
I'm not a Mormon, neither am I particularly religious, though when I come across people of the Mormon faith I'm struck by two things: how well-adjusted they are, and how healthy looking they appear. The Osmonds are great ambassadors for their faith and all appear to be very decent people. I used to tease my two cousins, Angie and Linda, about their teenage crushes on the Osmonds, but now I think they were good judges of character. Nice interview.
Ashley, please find the LDS missionaries in your area. Let them tell you more about our beliefs. I promise you, it can and will change your life for the better and you will find a peacefulness and a happiness you never imagined you could have in your life! God bless you and your family.
Allen recently I sent you a comment about your song writing awesome skills and about meeting paul McCartney who knocked at your door one morning. Then asked about if had met Brian Wilson another great song writer like you. Do you think God gave you all a gift to make to reach out to people?
I'm British, it is common knowledge that the Queen is a very very spiritual christian person. Her faith is unwavering, I honestly think she would have read Olive's book.
Please pray for me guys. I had a hip replaced 6 weeks ago. It's going very slow recovery wise...but the incision Area is still very sensitive. Walking I have 1 crutch now. I had the operation 6 weeks ago. Have an amazing Christmas...all of you
My question for Alan and Nathan, what exactly is the LDS gospel? the Bible is clear about the Christian gospel. What is your hope in life and death and why did Jesus have to die?
Thank you for sharing your stories, you brought me to tears a few times. I love that you all have the love and respect for each other. Nathan I'm so happy you love country music, (Don't Go There) is so beautiful, please we need more songs from you. ❤🙏
This was so beautiful, I have learned alot today...Always have Loved the Osmonds, but I got to see another side of the family and it's so beautiful, in this stressful time, everything said here can be applied...Thank you so much...God Bless You All.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to watch this. I have loved your family from the time I was a preteen. You have been a wonderful example of how to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ and not feel inclined to compromise even in the presence of kings and magistrates and others who would try to tempt you or possibly shame you. Instead you found that rather, they honored and admired you. Thank you for your example.
I can’t verbalize how much this has touched me- learning all about you Osmonds and you’re amazing characters, testimony and love- i truly say God Bless You All.
Usually a rookie in the military always get some kind of prank done on them. I would think they would want to do an extra big prank on him. I love the Osmonds but it seems like all the stories are always so perfect and nobody is that perfect.
The part where Alan talking about the nice black guy who wrote the Osmond Brothers’ last top 10 hit song “Love Me For a Reason” was famous record producer/songwriter Johnny Bristol. Just so you know.
I thing who was discourging you at the fight was satan and because your father lifted your spirits and took you to disneyland and heavenly father blessed your faith and courage
I gotta tell you I’m sure olive was a nice person but my parents were deaf and tom osmond who was deaf and we were invited to Toms wedding. Anyway olive hired some deaf people to open up their fan mail. My mother told me olive was a very cold person. She always seemed to be worried that the people who were opening up the fan mail was going to steel stuff. It just rubbed me the wrong way.
Nancy, olive was anything but cold. Your mom misunderstood her actions. She was just being careful. She did so much for so many and being cold was simply not in her description. She took so many kids and people under her wing. She really cared about people.
Everybody has a weakness, and Mrs. Osmond was not perfect. Maybe she did come across cold, and maybe she was worried about theft. I can see why you would be 'rubbed the wrong way'. Probably allot more to the story, but at the end of the day, she was a good woman, who surely made mistakes, but her goodness outweighed any weaknesses.
I just LOVE The Osmonds. Even now, I learn so much from the way they live their lives. Olive is one of my heroes. She is still teaching me how to be a mother. I’m just in awe of her. Also, I am one of those fans who were truly converted because of The Plan. And my life has been quite lovely because of the gospel. I still have my original vinyl album of The Plan. 💖
Didn’t the Osmond’s managers blow at that money they had earned early on? To bad your father didn’t let you all enjoy the money more early on because he certainly wasn’t watching out for it to last 😕

Love all the Osmonds i still have all of my Osmonds albums . Brings back my childhood 😄❤❤❤

I was at a Fireside with the Osmond Family in 1979, and to hear some of the things from Alan here that they spoke about then reaffirms so much!
God has blessed the world with your lives and testimony. Thank you for sharing!
I am so touched at clip. What a family. It made me cry. I'm going too be a better person from this moment ty.
Two exceptional gentlemen. Thank you Alan, Thank you Nathan.
Awesome interview. Wonderful wise messages. Thank you Alan and all of your brothers, for your rare wonderful examples in show biz to hold to good principles and to honor your marriage vows and keep your marriage and families together.
Alan was always my favorite Osmond. I loved him from day one. He's such a smart man.

Alan, I have your autograph still. You signed it just before getting on the bus in Memphis, TN one day.
GREAT FAMILY............
The Osmonds are such a wonderful family 💞
I just Love the Osmonds! God loving family!!!
What a wonderful inspiring podcast
Olive had the biggest most beautiful heart for her family and for others......❤️💕❤️
A very entertaining and interesting interview. Lots of things to learn in here, so I will have to watch it again. Good men talking about a good woman.
So interesting.
I am 62 years old and I have been in love with Alan since I was 13 and I finally got my picture took with him when I was 26 and he was so friendly him and Merill and Wayne they didn't make us feel as if we were being a pest to them and to this day I am a die-hard Osmond Fan I still love Alan but I also love Merrill Wayne Jay and Donny and I guess I will always be a fan of them
Mother Osmond was a great woman. Women don't come any finer.
Im not saying this because I hate you but because I love you.joseph Smith was a con man.
I admire the godly principles & moral virtues you keep on applying in your daily lives in the every Osmond siblings family. You are a great light & comfort to this crooked & perverse generation.
Alan, sounding so much like Father George here!
Name dropping! They all do this 😂 😂 😂😂😂
I love this interview. So many lessons!

The Osmond's Family Are Is So Awesome !
Love the interview and the beautiful stories❤️✨👍🤝🤣👏✌️
Fantastic interview.
Alan & Nate are lovely. x
godblessyou and therestoftheosmondfamily
A great family.
I sat with Olive during an Osmond Second Generation concert, and from then on, every time I ran into her, she recognized me and was excited to see me!
Such a beautifull family!!
If you say you believe then walk what you believe and be who you believe...I would have loved to known this when I was younger.
Just because you have a çouple of songs doesn't mean that your announced. U need the spirit of God without false Doctrine.
It's to bad she felt it necessary to join the LDS church
lot of great memories of all the Osmnds.
You responded to my message and I asked you about faith. You told me a site to lookup. WHAT WAS IT.
She was a amazing human been I have a privilege to live with them and she call me my Spanish daughter I l have a good memories with them love them
Really? How come you lived with them? I'd love to hear about it!
I'm not a Mormon, neither am I particularly religious, though when I come across people of the Mormon faith I'm struck by two things: how well-adjusted they are, and how healthy looking they appear. The Osmonds are great ambassadors for their faith and all appear to be very decent people.

Fantastic interview, two outstanding gentlemen, olive RIP a fantastic mother. The Osmond family are great.

Great conversation with Alan and Nathan great to listen toox
What date was this interview? Found it! November 2012, right at the very beginning of the video.
Amazing! I like all the Osmond brothers but I like Alan and Jimmy more.
Thank you for sharing your stories, you brought me to tears a few times. I love that you all have the love and respect for each other. Nathan I'm so happy you love country music, (Don't Go There) is so beautiful, please we need more songs from you. ❤🙏
This was good.
This was so beautiful, I have learned alot today...Always have Loved the Osmonds, but I got to see another side of the family and it's so beautiful, in this stressful time, everything said here can be applied...Thank you so much...God Bless You All.
Besides Jay did any of the other brothers go to college?
Great interview. God bless you
Thank you so much for the opportunity to watch this. I have loved your family from the time I was a preteen.

Olive and George raised some beautiful children and it rubbed off to everyone of those kids. God bless you Alan and Nathan. 🙏❤️
Why don't they drink tea?
Same reason they do not drink coffee, caffeine….
Alan very beautiful story 🤗🤗❤❤🌷🌷🤩😘❤❤

Deaf osmond brothers
Love doesn't eliminate heresy.
Thank you for this beautiful interview. I will keep listening to it. Your words help ground me and remind me of Loving. God bless you.
I can’t verbalize how much this has touched me- learning all about you Osmonds and you’re amazing characters, testimony and love- i truly say God Bless You All.
FAB
Usually a rookie in the military always get some kind of prank done on them. I would think they would want to do an extra big prank on him. I love the Osmonds but it seems like all the stories are always so perfect and nobody is that perfect.
Not all their stories is that perfect. Remember how they lost so much money!!
The part where Alan talking about the nice black guy who wrote the Osmond Brothers’ last top 10 hit song “Love Me For a Reason” was famous record producer/songwriter Johnny Bristol. Just so you know.
I'm proud of you Alan and God bless you Alan and all of the Osmond's.....
It is a pity alan did not have a girl caroldabson xx
Wat a wonderful family Enjoyed the interview …
Wow this was really insightful. Learning much. Ty.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview, what a loving family, and very wise quotes that I will carry with me.
Eventhough I had my own parents i still called the Osmonds parents mother and father Osmond i did not come frome a broken home!!!
I thing who was discourging you at the fight was satan and because your father lifted your spirits and took you to disneyland and heavenly father blessed your faith and courage
The Osmond brothers and Marie are my 11th cous 3xrem thru their father George Sr and his mother Van Noy..
I gotta tell you I’m sure olive was a nice person but my parents were deaf and tom osmond who was deaf and we were invited to Toms wedding. Anyway olive hired some deaf people to open up their fan mail. My mother told me olive was a very cold person. She always seemed to be worried that the people who were opening up the fan mail was going to steel stuff. It just rubbed me the wrong way.
Nancy Wharton She had every right to worry about people stealing as it did happen to them. They lost a lot of money
Nancy, olive was anything but cold. Your mom misunderstood her actions. She was just being careful. She did so much for so many and being cold was simply not in her description. She took so many kids and people under her wing. She really cared about people.
Everybody has a weakness, and Mrs. Osmond was not perfect. Maybe she did come across cold, and maybe she was worried about theft. I can see why you would be 'rubbed the wrong way'. Probably allot more to the story, but at the end of the day, she was a good woman, who surely made mistakes, but her goodness outweighed any weaknesses.
Excellent interview some of the things they talked about I heard before.
What beautiful sweet men Alans smile is absolutely loving sweet and beautiful
I loved hearing about the family.
Picture s please!
I just LOVE The Osmonds. Even now, I learn so much from the way they live their lives. Olive is one of my heroes. She is still teaching me how to be a mother. I’m just in awe of her. Also, I am one of those fans who were truly converted because of The Plan. And my life has been quite lovely because of the gospel. I still have my original vinyl album of The Plan. 💖
How can you look over Galatians 1 8, 9 your accursed.
Didn’t the Osmond’s managers blow at that money they had earned early on? To bad your father didn’t let you all enjoy the money more early on because he certainly wasn’t watching out for it to last 😕
