Jam

**Jam** is a minor character in *Kindi Kids*. She is Aberdale's residential news reporter.

## Biography

In "Butterfly Effect", she reported all sorts of activity that had been going on with the Kindi Kids after the events that led to the family falling apart. She asked Peppa-Mint for comments about them, and Peppa-Mint reveals that she knows about them because they're her kids, and lastly, she asks where it all went wrong. Bella Bow tried to stop the interview when she questioned why she hired Peppa-Mint to work at her gas station, but not before endorsing her products. However this was all Beary Chill's fantasy, so this never happened.

She appears again in "Out on a Limo", where she wants to interview Beary Chill for riding in her limo. She asks her how she got to be so important, and Beary Chill didn't know how to answer that since she only won the limo for a day in a mustard jar contest. She later reports about her downfall after she loses the limo where Beary Chill admits that she thought she was more important than everyone else only to reveal she was just a fridge who ate a bunch of mustard. She asked for a ride home, but the reporter denied it and drove away.

She also appears in "The Loudest Yard", where she wants to talk to Beary Chill about her latest play, but since all this time it was really Summer Peaches secretly playing in her stead, she just made up a comment about it being in the past and her being about the future. The coach of the Aberdale Roosters wanted her to get her cameraman to shoot some poses of her.

In "Snow Bored", she is seen on TV, alongside Tucker.

In "Future Tense", she reports on The Yates Family rescuing turtles.

In "Scales of Justice" where her full name is revealed to be Jam, she covers the story of the swamp monster that Jessicake secretly orchestrates.

In "Racing Hearts", she can be seen talking into a camera.

In "Cooked!", she was on TV talking about a "tree monster" and later interviewed The Friendship Chair at her restaurant after Donatina invited her for a restaurant promotion.

In "Last Kid on Earth," Jam was among the people at the Aberdale Mall due to an approaching storm. She came out with the Kindi Kids, Bud Grouse, and Mayor Davis at the time when Beary Chill and Pickup Pup mistook a cold-infested Friendship Chair, Lettuce, and Buncho Bananas as zombies. When the boys mentioned that they were watching the "Swarm of the Zombies" marathon in Peppa-Mint's Underground Bunker and Peppa-Mint asked how they got in it, Jam was among the people present that state that her passcode is her birthday.

She tries a cookie Pickup Pup baked in "Tough Cookies" after it falls on her head while reporting on an event at Sunset Canyon Retirement Home.

In "Family Bonding", she appears on TV congratulating Beary Chill and Pickup Pup for foiling the Millers' scheme of destroying all the cherries at Rainbow Kindi while also mentioning that the authorities haven't found the Millers yet.

In "Scoop Snoop", the Action News Team was angered by her seemingly stealing their news leads and beating them to reporting the stories. After Chef Pat and Mr. Mu weren't the culprits, they suspected Principal Ramirez due to her interacting with Jam which led to an incident where Principal Ramirez is knocked into the lake. It turns out that Jam was in the same book club as Principal Ramirez and that she began dating Donut Cupcake's dad Rodney who has been relaying all of the stories to her after Donut Cupcake tells him about what the team plans to report, thinking they were just gossip. Jam tells Principal Ramirez that the Action News Team reminds her of herself when she was starting out as a news reporter and convinces her not to cancel the team for pushing her into a lake. To make up for the trouble she caused, Jam tells the team that she will donate some equipment to them so they won't have to use a phone all the time to record their show. In addition, she joins them in a joint news report that involves Bella Bow painting the packing peanuts to resemble actual peanuts.

In "The Last Laugh", Rainbow Kate and Marsha Mello (as Princess Sassy Pants) perform their routine on the news, much causes Jam to burst out laughing so hard she falls out of her seat.

## Appearance
