The HoneyDew with Ryan Sickler

My HoneyDew this week is legendary comedian, actor, and television host Howie Mandel! Howie Highlights the Lowlights of living with ADHD and OCD. We discuss how his OCD diagnosis became public after an interview with Howard Stern and what it’s been like navigating mental health in the public eye. We also talk about Howie’s incredible career—from the voice behind Gizmo in Gremlins, to one of the first comedians to become a game show host, and becoming the longest-running judge in America’s Got Talent history. It’s a funny, honest, and fascinating conversation about comedy, mental health, television, and one of entertainment’s most unique careers. Check out Howie’s Podcast, Howie Mandel Does Stuff.
