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.

Paychecks, Power Moves, and Petty Naval Flags (Jan 22 25)

This week on Late For Changeover, the crew dives helmet-first into Trump’s latest military move—tapping a former Space Force officer to be the next Air Force Undersecretary. That’s right: from orbit to office politics. Is this the start of a galactic takeover or just another “space guy” trying to get a better parking spot at the Pentagon? Either way, it’s one giant leap for space force podcast content.
Then we tackle the eternal Marine Corps debate—beards or bust? (Spoiler: it's still bust.) We also break down a new report claiming military pay actually stacks up against civilian gigs (cue laughter from junior enlisted), and finally, we raise the metaphorical “Cuckold Flag” and sail into the weirdest corner of military history. It’s policy, paychecks, and petty symbolism—served up with sarcasm, snark, and a side of News for Vets.
