Biography

Andy Gold writes and tells damn good jokes. The winner of the Salt Lake Comedy Festival, Andy has also been featured in festivals and competitions all over the country, including the Boston Comedy Festival, Ventura Comedy Festival, Rocky Mountain Laugh Off, and Idaho Laugh Fest. His damn good jokes have also appeared on Comedy Time TV, Hulu, and Nickmom (which is impressive since Andy is definitely not a mom).

A prolific writer, Andy’s material runs the gamut from talking about being a recovering addict to working at his dad’s produce stand and it’s all tied together by one thing, and one thing only: really big laughs.

What they’re saying…

In planning a Retreat for medical professionals in recovery, we came across a YouTube video of Andy Gold. When we stopped laughing we contacted Recovery Comedy, and Andy Gold was hired. Andy not only tailored his performance to be specific to the group, he also humbled himself to spend time with everyone in an AA meeting and overall fellowship. He was hysterically funny sharing personal experiences and life situations! Everyone loved him with a request to even have him return! He is worth his weight in gold and ended up being an inspiration to those who attended. If you are looking for a funny comedian who is real, he’s your guy.

As the entertainment chair for the Conference I received many compliments on Andy’s performance. I received numerous calls and text messages today. Thank you for working with us, it was a pleasure to meet Andy and hear his performance.

Thank you, Recovery Comedy for another great year. Andy Gold was very easy to work with and the crowd loved him. This was our third year of having a community event and we are already planning on our 4th. Thanks Recovery Coomedy for making the event booking process so simple.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Recovery Comedy for working with us for these last 5 years. Your comedians have provided excellent entertainment at our events, and our attendees have told us that it’s one of their favorite parts of our conferences.

For our 2018 conference we had Andy Gold as our entertainment and he was fantastic. I get the opportunity to work with the entertainers as the event coordinator as well as an audience member, and Andy was great on both levels. Not only did he make my job easier, he made us look good!

As the coordinator, I found Andy to be very easy to deal with, which is always appreciated. As an audience member, I found him to be extremely entertaining, and I wish he could’ve done another hour! Our attendees could not stop talking about him the next day and that’s exactly what we want to have happen.

We look forward to having him back with us in the future and would encourage anyone to book him for their events.
