Howie Mandel Issues Grim Warning to a Troubled Andy Dick: ‘You Don’t Have a Lot of Chances Left’

Comedian Andy Dick is coming clean about his overdose in Los Angeles late last year that left him clinically dead and admits he now has “five to seven holes” in his brain.

Andy, 60, recently discussed his harrowing OD — and his long struggle with addiction — on the Howie Mandel Does Stuff podcast, revealing he was “purple” and “not breathing” after being discovered slumped over outside a Hollywood building on Dec. 9, 2025.

Shortly after the disturbing incident, a rep for the NewsRadio alum told the National Enquirer, “He’s fine. They were filming part of a documentary as well as a live stream. He was just drinking heavily and fell asleep.”

However, Andy later copped to smoking crack from a stranger, then entered a Palm Springs rehab facility and checked out in late January after nearly 50 days of treatment, TMZ reported.

The Zoolander actor now says he’s not sure what he smoked that day and believes the stranger came to his aid by administering Narcan, a nasal spray that can reverse opioid overdoses.

The funnyman says he’s currently living in a sober house where he’s undergoing regular drug testing.

Andy dished to Howie that his memory is fried from drugs and a CAT scan of his noggin discovered the “holes.”

However, Andy’s rep elaborated in a statement to Entertainment Weekly, claiming the issue with his brain stems from a 2019 assault “that almost killed” him, when an “unprovoked attacker cold-cocked Andy” outside a New Orleans club where he’d just performed. The spokesperson adds, “We are assured that his brain will heal.”

The recovering addict also told fellow stand-up star Howie that one of his problems regarding the temptation of booze and illicit substances is that he gets “bored easily.”

Andy, who has three children, two grandchildren and another grandkid on the way, says of staying sober, “I just have to.”

Howie told his old pal, “I wanted you to come here to say, ‘You don’t have a lot of chances left, buddy.’ You don’t. And you had a lot of chances, and a lot of people root for you, and they’re worried about you, and you gotta….”

“Pull it together,” Andy chimed in.
