Andy has appeared in festivals and competitions all over the country, including the Boston Comedy Festival, San Diego Comedy Festival, Laugh Your Asheville Off and Comcast’s Trial by Laughter Comedy Festival. Andy’s comedy has also been featured on Hulu and he can be heard regularly on Kevin Hart’s Laugh Out Loud network on Sirius XM and Audible’s Punchlines. He also recorded two full-length specials for Dry Bar Comedy called Dreamcatcher and Addicted to Comedy.


Andy draws humor from all parts of his life, especially the nearly 10 years he spent in active heroin addiction which has made him a favorite at treatment centers and recovery events across the country. Andy began his comedy career just six months after a (temporally) fatal overdose prompted his family to intervene and convince him to go to treatment. A prolific writer, Gold’s material runs the gamut from sharing colorful jokes about life, dating, jail, rehab, family and recovery and it’s all tied together by one thing and one thing only: really big laughs.
