6. Yo! Sushi entrepreneur Simon Woodroffe on Neil Diamond, mortality, fish, fashion and his Bahamian island

In the sixth episode of 'Can I ask you a personal question?', Dan and Will speak to Simon Woodroffe, the entrepreneur best known as the founder of restaurant chain Yo! Sushi and hotel business Yotel.  Simon left his public school aged 16, and went on to work with some of the biggest names in rock 'n' roll as a stage designer. He launched Yo! Sushi in his 40s, and – after selling down his stake in the raw fish business – Simon has since become a serial entrepreneur, also setting up Yotel and Yo! Home.  In this episode, Simon tells Will and Dan why they should accept mortality, take more financial risks and start making more bold fashion choices. He also speaks about his latest investment – a Bahamian island that he wants to open up to the public.
