Love Joy, but why does she insist on calling him Rudy "Julie-ANNIE"

I.e., Joy Reed

No one else pronounces it that way (including Giuliani) and even after her guests pronounce it correctly, she persists...It struck me last week too, but I thought after hearing lots of her guests pronounce it correctly, she'd follow suit, at least this week.

Small thing, certainly, but it drives me nuts... (not a long distance, certainly)...

"Julie-Annie" stretches it out much longer than necessary.... Julieahnee is quick...
