College football is back, so Hilton called on me, the Superstition Concierge, to make your fan rituals a reality. Need a room to match your lucky number? We got you. Want to make sure our team doesn't wash your lucky jersey? Oh, that smells lucky.

Hilton's unmatched hospitality can keep up with any superstition. Even a marching band wake up call at 555 in 55 seconds. Hit it!

When you need a team that will do whatever it takes on game day, it matters where you stay. Hilton, for the stay.

For decades, a shadowy organization called the Lemonati has kept lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Look around, lemon forward sodas, even lemon forward songs. We ran the tracks, slowed them down, reversed them and squeezed out the truth.

That's lemon propaganda right there. But now 7UP is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Join the 7UPrising. Flip the Sip.

Josh Widdicombe (1:41)

Hello and welcome to Footballing Hell with...

Rob Beckett (1:45)

Honey, can you say Rob Beckett?

SPEAKER_2 (1:49)

Rob Beckett.

Rob Beckett (1:51)

Can you say Josh Widdicombe?

SPEAKER_3 (1:54)

Josh Widdicombe.

Rob Beckett (1:55)

Well done.

Rob Beckett (1:57)

Hello.

Rob Beckett (1:58)

Hello.

Rob Beckett (1:58)

What's happening here? Is this a new feature, Michael?

Michael (2:01)

So we have had the wife of a former Premier League footballer send in a voicemail. She's got her husband to do it because she's such a big fan of the show. Now, it's incredibly difficult to guess that off the back of my head.

Rob Beckett (2:16)

We've made it even harder, I think, because at least before it was like, who could Rob get access to?

Josh Widdicombe (2:21)

No, but now you're going as a former Premier League footballer, his wife's Northern.

Rob Beckett (2:25)

Oh yeah, that narrows it down.

Josh Widdicombe (2:29)

I'm thinking you played for one of the big Northwest teams.

SPEAKER_9 (2:31)

Are you going in this dry with no Vaseline of clues?

Josh Widdicombe (2:35)

Well, is that right, Michael?

Michael (2:37)

So we're going to play a game of Who Am I? So you do get one loobless Vaseline free guess, so you can just swing for the fences and it won't count.

Josh Widdicombe (2:46)

Can we hear it again?

Rob Beckett (2:47)

Can we hear it again?

Michael (2:48)

Yeah, you can hear it one more time.

Rob Beckett (2:51)

Honey, can you say Rob Beckett?

SPEAKER_2 (2:55)

Rob Beckett.

Rob Beckett (2:57)

Can you say Josh Widdicombe? Josh Widdicombe.

SPEAKER_1 (3:01)

Well done.

Josh Widdicombe (3:02)

He sounded Australian first time out, but he didn't on the-

SPEAKER_9 (3:05)

Can you say, it's really Northern, isn't it?

Josh Widdicombe (3:08)

Yeah, so I think-

SPEAKER_1 (3:09)

He sounds Australian, didn't he?

Josh Widdicombe (3:10)

Yeah, I think she's from Manchester and he's from Australia.

Rob Beckett (3:15)

I think it's Harry Kuehl.

Josh Widdicombe (3:16)

Oh, she's from Emmerdale.

Rob Beckett (3:19)

The only Aussie that I know that married a sort of Northern English person is Harry Kuehl off the top of my head, but we'll go for some clues.

Josh Widdicombe (3:27)

Then I think Harry Kuehl is coaching somewhere insane at the moment.

Rob Beckett (3:31)

Yeah, but hey, this podcast is global.

Josh Widdicombe (3:34)

This podcast is global, but I don't think they'd be together during the season.

Rob Beckett (3:39)

OK, right.

Michael (3:40)

OK, so you can both have one guess, blind guess.

Josh Widdicombe (3:44)

So Rob's got Harry Kuehl, which is a great guess because it all fits.

Rob Beckett (3:48)

No lube, no lube guess, kill.

Josh Widdicombe (3:50)

OK, I...

Rob Beckett (3:51)

What's your no lube?

Josh Widdicombe (3:53)

Well, I'm just trying to think on Australian. I'm... Oh, I'm going to go with Mark Schwartzer.

Rob Beckett (4:00)

OK.

Josh Widdicombe (4:01)

I mean, he played for Middlesbrough, didn't he?

Rob Beckett (4:03)

We don't even know if he's Australian, really. We're really just hoping.

Josh Widdicombe (4:05)

What, Mark Schwartzer?

SPEAKER_3 (4:06)

He is.

SPEAKER_9 (4:06)

No, the person he's...

SPEAKER_3 (4:07)

Oh, right.
