Veterans Tim "Rooster" Dollins and Brandon "Bear" Mooring, Hoist The Colors is a bold, unapologetic space for real conversations about patriotism, current events, and the voices too often left out of mainstream media. Army Veteran | Survivalist | Professional Pot-Stirrer
With a military mindset and a wild streak, Tim "Rooster" Dollins is the fearless (and sometimes feather-brained) half of the Hoi
st The Colors Show. Army Veteran, seasoned Survival Instructor, published Author, and Holistic Practitioner, Rooster brings depth, grit, and just the right amount of conspiracy to every conversation. When he's not guiding veterans through natural healing or teaching others how to thrive off-grid, Rooster’s chasing adrenaline, busting open bizarre headlines, and dragging Bear into yet another ill-advised adventure. With a heart for helping his fellow Vets and a passion for living life wide open, Rooster keeps things loud, bold, and unapologetically unpredictable. Catchphrase: “Trust me—I saw it on a government document once.”
🐻 Brandon "Bear" Mooring
Co-Host | U.S.M.C. Veteran | Martial Arts Master | Resident Voice of Reason
Strong, steady, and just slightly suspicious of Rooster’s next big idea, Brandon "Bear" Mooring is the calm(ish) counterbalance on the Hoist The Colors Show. Marine Corps Veteran, Bear is also a seasoned Martial Arts Instructor, Electrical Engineer, Bushcraft pro, and published Author—basically, the guy you want around when the apocalypse hits or your WiFi goes out. When he’s not teaching self-discipline with a side of roundhouse kicks, Bear’s decoding Rooster’s latest theory, rolling his eyes through another wild news segment, or quietly planning a smarter (and safer) way to do things. Thoughtful, tough, and always up for a challenge, Bear brings logic, laughs, and low-key intensity to the chaos.
