André began his comedy career in 2003.[11] He is the creator and host of The Eric Andre Show, a parody of public access talk shows, on Cartoon Network's late night programming block Adult Swim.[12] The show features pranks, shock humor, sketches, and celebrity interviews.

André dated actress Rosario Dawson from 2016 to 2017.[19] In March 2021, André revealed he was in a relationship with a woman that he met at a farmer's market and that she did not know he was famous until after they started dating.[20]
André is an agnostic atheist[21] and a practitioner of Transcendental Meditation.[22] He endorsed Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders in the 2020 presidential election.[23]
In a 2016 interview, André said: "I think everyone is bi, right? There's no such thing as sexual orientation, or race, or gender. Those are all obsolete man-made concepts. I'll say it again, a hole is a hole." When asked if he was coming out as bisexual, he continued: "I'll fuck anything that moves."[24]
