Host/PD SAT BISLA said, “It’s incredibly inspiring and humbling to see the phenomenal response to PASSPORT APPROVED. Many of our affiliates have seen a strong increase in ratings, research and audience reaction from the PASSPORT APPROVED program. It’s also been fantastic to see so many artists getting massive breaks from being featured on the show and our radio affiliates being there ‘first’ with us, to unveil the most promising new international talent before they break elsewhere."
