Summary

On a live show, anything can happen, but Tom Bergeron trusts he can handle it. The host of ABC's hit dancing competition show, "Dancing With the Stars," has been meditating for over 35 years and credits his years of TM practice for keeping his cool and "responding appropriately" on the fly in front of judges, contestants and a live studio audience, as well as managing "a really bad temper."

the situation that I should blame ultimately if things go off the rails. It's how I

1:48.6

hosted plenty of other shows over the years. But he's also a long term and very dedicated

meditator. He even wrote about it quite extensively in a book called I'm hosting as fast as

1:59.4

I can, which came out many years ago. I've wanted to have him on for a while. I finally
