Six months ago, few people in New Zealand had a clue who Simon Henry was.

He was just an anonymous millionaire running his successful business.

But then, all of a sudden, his comments referring to My Food Bag founder Nadia Lim catapulted him into the public consciousness for all the wrong reasons.  

NZ Herald investigative journalist Carolyne Meng-yee has been trying to secure an interview with Henry ever since those comments were made.

She finally got to sit down with the man for an extensive chat on Lim, business and life in Christchurch.

Today, Carolyne Meng-yee joins guest host Chelsea Daniels to share a glimpse of the world according to Simon Henry and why we should pay attention to his comments.
