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.

Troops in Space, Girls in the Ranks, and Nimitz in Charge (Dec 18 24)

This week, the Late Crew launches straight into the galaxy-brained idea from Trump’s NASA pick: boots on the Moon, Mars, or wherever the next Space McDonald’s opens. Yep, according to him, it’s only a matter of time before the military starts posting troops in orbit—because if there's one thing the Space Force needs, it's mandatory mustache regs in zero gravity. Speaking of futures in uniform, the DoD reports most girls don’t think they’d succeed in the military—so naturally, the crew digs into what’s broken, what’s improving, and who’s really still gatekeeping the chow hall.
Then it’s a toast to progress as the Air Force names its first female SERE specialist as Chief Master Sergeant (about damn time), and the Space Force drops the hottest new concept in military onboarding: its very own boot camp. Rounding out the ep is a deep-cut history lesson from 1941, when Admiral Nimitz took command of the Pacific Fleet and basically told the Japanese Navy to hold his beer. It's offbeat, off-script, and unapologetically aimed at space force veterans, Air Force vets, and anyone who prefers their military news with a side of sarcasm.
