Re: Judy’s CNBC interview. If I got a penny for every time Judy Faulkner attributed a feature of Epic (real like MyChart or imagined like interop) to herself or her conversations with her husband, I’d be a very rich man today indeed.

And some of her stories sound like Trump’s “sir” stories (like the one with that gentleman about the spiral binder)!
I think it’s just because deep down she’s an awkward 70 something trying to be relatable.
