After just two episodes, we're thrilled to say that the AshokaTECH Podcast has been selected by The School for Social Entrepreneurs blog as a "Top 10 Podcast for Social Entrepreneurs!"  Thanks so much -- we're honored to be included among other great shows.

This week's episode of the AshokaTECH Podcast features an interview with Ghanaian social entrepreneur Bright Simons who leverages mobile technology and SMS messages to help improve health and safety in West Africa. Bright sits down with host Alex Budak, as they discuss his work at the intersection of public health and technology, as well as the promise that mobile telephones hold for African development. 

As always, be sure to follow Alex on Twitter, @TheBudak, for updates on the podcast and your chance to have your own questions answered in future interviews.
