Bud Grant, the legendary Vikings coach and Pro Football Hall of Famer, turned 95 on Friday and is a very special guest on today's show.

Host Michael Rand and Bud talk about the interesting progression of aging, the joy of living a good, long life, Grant's path into coaching and how he copes with surviving a near-death experience when he was 29.

Plus Rand's thoughts on the Lynx, Vikings and the Nick Saban vs. Jimbo Fisher feud at the end of the show.
