I'm Judi Franco. I adore co-hosting the midday show with Dennis Malloy, who after 20 years is like a husband to me; the annoying husband who doesn't sleep with me, give me money or pay enough attention to me. I love New Jersey so much that it's like a sister to me; the bitchy sister who steals my boyfriends, tells my mom my secrets and owes me money she never intends to pay.
