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. And be sure to join the fun on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrzPMzqLMg05QK9B2tpO4NA

Hallucinogens, Heroics & Military Humor We’ll Deny Later (Oct 9 24)

This week on Late For Changeover, the FAA tells SpaceX to cool its jets—literally—with permission to launch just one Falcon 9. (Somewhere, Elon’s eye is twitching.) Then it’s off to Schriever Space Force Base, where troops are bringing their own Tupperware because apparently the chow hall missed the memo about providing food and the things to eat it with. Peak Space Force news, folks.
We also get into the absolute madness faced by Vietnam vets who were unknowingly dosed with nerve agents and hallucinogens (because why not test that on your own people?) and are still fighting for their back pay. Then, it’s time for some of the finest military dark humor you probably shouldn’t laugh at—but absolutely will. And finally, we salute Alvin York, the WWI legend who went full solo-op and wiped out a German machine gun battalion on October 8, 1918. It's war stories, bad decisions, bureaucratic brilliance, and a whole lot of News for Vets—served with sarcasm and zero filter.
