It's a pretty well known story, also told by Epis. There is a greater context to it when you hear Manton's full story (he has the short, medium and long version - the long one is great) - lazy, entitled and thought he was better than he was.
For Glenn, the right person came at the right time and he was lucky enough to say yes. It is an inspirational story, because it taught him about consistent and persistent hard work and the rewards that can come with it. The sessions continued after '95. Manton tells it in a way that does make it inspirational. No, we're not all going to be superstars, but we can be better (simplistically)
Yes, he is out there, but he wants to make a difference. He has gone on to do some really good work with kids, he helped kick off White Lion, while Glenn can be about Glenn, there is little doubt that he does make a positive difference.
