Dick Van Dyke on why you should worry less and dance more
89-year-old acting legend Dick Van Dyke on what to expect in life's last act.


Sure, we can all put on a happy face, but how long can we really keep it on?
Well, if Dick Van Dyke's sunny outlook is any indication, try 89 years — and counting. The acting legend joins Shad to discuss his new book, Keep Moving, and his upbeat attitude toward life.
In a wide-ranging conversation, Van Dyke explains why he doesn't think about death, how late-blooming love caught him by surprise, and his magical plans for his 90th birthday.

Plus, for those that don't quite remember the Mary Poppins penguin dance, let Dick refresh your memory.
And here are some photos from the Van Dyke vault.
