Late For Changeover is the podcast for anyone who’s ever rolled into guard mount a few minutes late but still got the job done—with a story to tell. Hosted by veterans Marty Smith, Eric “Mr. History” Piarrot, Jake Wall, Ana Mondragon, and rotating guests, this weekly show blends military humor, historical deep dives, space-force-level absurdity, and off-the-rails banter. It’s smart, sharp, and just unhinged enough to keep you coming back. From billion-dollar rocket launches to confederate statue debates, every episode serves up irreverent takes from people who’ve been there, done that, and still remember their shift-change stories. ”Swearing In” is a special interview series from Late For Changeover that explores the moment everything changed: the decision to raise your right hand. Through intimate, one-on-one conversations, each episode dives into the personal stories behind enlistment, capturing the motivations, fears, and defining moments that led individuals to military service. From first-generation soldiers to second-chance enlistees, Swearing In honors the deeply human side of the uniform, offering listeners a raw, reflective look at where the journey really begins. Late For Changeover isn’t just jokes and jargon. Beneath the laughs are reflections on identity, transition, leadership, and what it means to serve—and then move on. Whether you’re a vet, an active-duty listener, or just someone who loves to laugh at acronyms and unpack the weirdness of bureaucracy, you’ll feel right at home. No branch is spared, no topic is off limits, and no one escapes a roast—especially the hosts. Hit subscribe, and join the formation. Just don’t be late.

This week on Late For Changeover, we welcome former Navy Petty Officer Second Class turned entrepreneur Steven Leapley, who swapped classified comms for business cards as the founder of Leapley Enterprises LLC. We talk career pivots, veteran leadership, and the surprisingly tactical art of not losing your mind while transitioning to civilian life. If you’re into News for Vets with an edge, this one’s a must-hear.
We also break down the freshly passed NDAA (a.k.a. the Congressional Christmas gift to defense contractors), and then throw it way back to 1777—when George Washington kicked off the most miserable winter camping trip in U.S. military history at Valley Forge. From founding father frostbite to modern vet-owned businesses, this episode's got more layers than your field jacket in January.
