3 Is the New 2 Podcast (featuring Brian Glynn)
Brian Glynn is our featured guest on Episode 2 of Season 2 of the podcast. There are surprise guests, including a member of the 2012 ILLINI Wrestling team to debate Glynn as to whether the 2012 team was better than his 2005 team. The Great Debate begins!
