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.

TAP Class Is Trash and RAND Just Proved It (Jul 17 24)

This week on Late For Changeover, we dig into a fresh RAND report that basically says what every salty E-4 mafia member already knew: military transition programs are out here pushing degrees when what vets really need are damn jobs. While Uncle Sam’s busy handing out pamphlets about college algebra, transitioning service members are wondering if anyone’s hiring for “Weapons System Technician with 12 years of classified experience and no LinkedIn.”
We break down how this disconnect hits Space Force veterans, Air Force vets, and anyone who's ever sat through a TAP class thinking, "This is just PowerPoint hell with snacks." It’s real talk about life after the uniform, the civilian skills gap no one wants to fix, and how the system still hasn’t caught up with the modern vet. It’s raw, it's funny, and it’s the space force podcast you didn’t know you needed in your transition toolkit. Welcome to News for Vets—with way more attitude than your VA caseworker.
