Description

Captain Hugh "Bulldog" Drummond was a British World War I veteran turned adventurer introduced in his eponymous novel in 1920. He quickly leaped to the stage and silent film, and then to a series of talking pictures released on both sides on the Atlantic. 

In the 1940s, Bulldog Drummond leaped radio in a series dedicated to telling the Drummond's American adventures. For eight years, listeners heard the distinctive sound of the foghorn announcing a new adventure with Bulldog Drummond as he battled the forces of evil with his friend and sidekick, Denny.

Your host, Adam Graham is your guide through every circulating episode of this action-packed mystery series.
