This week on Ferris Out Loud, hosts Lilly Martineau, Landen Wybenga, Barbra Melvin, and Mason Yarnell cover a wide mix of campus news, trending topics, and student life fun. They kick things off with stories from their busy weekends, from family visits in Muskegon to coaching at a packed basketball tournament. The hosts then dive into the early winter weather moving through Big Rapids and reminisce about cold-weather football games, tailgating traditions, and the chaos of navigating icy sidewalks on campus.
Next, the conversation turns to Michigan wildlife after reports of mini-antlered deer appearing more frequently across the state. Everyone gives their take on the strange sightings and shares their own encounters with animals around campus and back home. Then, the group discusses an emerging tech concern: increasingly realistic AI-generated phone scams targeting college students. While some find the technology fascinating, others emphasize the need for better digital safety awareness.
During Tea Time, the hosts weigh in on an online post about a student whose roommate keeps inviting their boyfriend over without warning. They share candid advice on boundaries, communication, and keeping shared living spaces respectful.
The Bulldog Battle game is “Finish That Lyric,” where everyone competes to complete lines from popular songs—resulting in confident guesses, surprising wins, and a few hilarious lyrical fumbles.
And in College Survival Guide, they share practical tips for managing sleep schedules and staying healthy as cold and flu season ramps up across campus.
Finally, in Campus Buzz, the hosts remind students about upcoming Ferris events and that Thanksgiving break begins November 26 at noon.
