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.

Falcon 9 Takes Off, F-16 Gets Cut Off (Oct 2 24)

This week on Late For Changeover, the crew breaks down a SpaceX milestone as Falcon 9 launches a new ISS crew from SLC-40—the first crewed liftoff from that pad, and a big win for Elon’s space résumé (as if he needed another). Meanwhile, a Russian fighter decides to cosplay as Maverick and cuts off an F-16 mid-NORAD intercept—because what’s international diplomacy without a little aerial road rage?
Back on Earth, the Marine Corps is overhauling its marksmanship training, likely causing every range NCO in the Corps to scream into a sandbag. We also dive into how an Air Force special ops squadron managed to damage three Ospreys in five days—yes, three. Then we head down the history rabbit hole with a nod to the USS Nautilus, the Navy’s first nuclear sub, and the activation of the 1st Cavalry Air Mobile in Vietnam. Whether you’re into space podcasts, tactical trainwrecks, or just excellent News for Vets, this episode’s got the lift, the drift, and a whole lot of dark humor in between.
