This Side of the Hill

Janet Caperna and Jared Lipscomb are bff “valley girls” who live on the OTHER side of the Hollywood Hills aka The San Fernando Valley. Joined by Jason Caperna (alleged legal expert and confirmed Janet's husband), this weekly broadcast is all about the peaks & valleys in life. Whether it's petty pet peeves & popular culture or rave reviews & unpopular opinions, this trio is ready to make mountains out of molehills. Fill up that thermos of Diet Coke & take a hike to THIS SIDE OF THE HILL.

    Love this podcast
    I don’t know why people are so mean to the Capernas. Let them be. Love listening to this trio. It’s reality tv people need to calm down and show Janet some grace.

    LOVE 🫶🏽
    Listening 🎙️to you guys feels like I’m just hanging with my friends ❤️
  • Sp@reMe
    Not everyone needs a pod
    Wait til you make it few more seasons, Capernas. And Jared, you don’t even go here.

    Same Old, Same Old
    I listened to several episodes in order to give a fair review. Jared grew on me a lot and earned the podcast an extra star. Janet and Jason are OK and are more relatable here than on The Valley. My main problem with the podcast is that it is generic. How many do we need on random pop culture? They don’t bring anything new to the conversation. I tuned in hoping to get some extra insight and commentary on the show and its behind-the-scenes. They barely touch on the show. Maybe they are just Valley’d out, but they are really missing their opportunity to give unique and original content. For example, it would have been awesome to get a vulnerable reaction to WWHL. I’m done listening for awhile, but hopefully this feedback leads to better content going forward. If so, I will be back!

    Nah we’re good
    Janet is unkind, diabolical and controlling. Scary she brought a child to the world. Jason, take the kid and run for the Hills!!! Stop trying to make this wildebeast of a woman happen. WE ALL HATE JANET.
  • I’mirrelevant
    No thanks
    Just dull people who provide no substance to their non stop chattering. They just like to hear their voices talking.
  • Mctds
    A face for radio, a personality for the skip button
    Episode 7: The stilted, awkward banter, the “should I know who you’re talking about?”, the “this is such a bad podcast.” You said it, darlings. Your personalities alone (Jared’s notwithstanding?) are not good content, and it’s clear you’re not committed to developing anything unique. Jason is a know-it-all with sinus issues, Janet suffers from main character delusion. This show will be gone soon. Jared, hope you land somewhere worthy!
  • London Gangster
    Disgusting
    So we are to believe that Janet likes her vanilla couch sex after “allegedly” having a threesome with Max and Dayna? Sure Jan. You’re a joke just like this lame podcast.
  • dankbankhank
    Bad podcast bad hosts bad people
    Take this awful trash down and shame on apple for letting such garbage people be platformed
  • RonnieTK
    Just what nobody needed
    Yet another Bravo podcast of people desperate to get rich and famous. Yawn.
  • Jeisicyen
    Horrible Person
    You’re so desperate to be a relevant mean girl you outed someone in Alanon. You’re truly the definition of a horrible person and made it where thousands of people will be afraid to share in Alanon a place that is supposed to be safe and saves people lives, you’re disgusting.
  • NJBr!
    Sure Jan
    Outing someone for going to AlAnon meetings is not acceptable. It is hard enough to go to those meeting and it is not your story to tell if someone does choose to share their journey. Janet should talk to a therapist instead of have a podcast, one that holds her accountable.

    Love!
    I’ve been a listener & fan since day one and now my husband enjoys listening with me as well! I love their topics and commentary and their unique ability to see all sides of a topic. You guys are a great trio and I look forward to watching this podcast grow!
  • TaylorLanes
    Never again.
    Janet is insufferable. She is embarrassing to listen to and has no good takes.
  • Berylboojones
    Im into it
    Ive watched Vanderpump rules since season one aired on tv. (Strange because I’m 16) Anyway, I love having the Valley in my life. I grew up with Kristin and Brittany, but the most chill podcast has been this one. Something about the banter between all 3 (or 2 because Jason is the only one that works) (I feel like I can joke about that) I appreciate that you don’t really do interviews and I can just Kiki with my friends while I drive to work at Sephora. Im into it!

    You are seen, Janet.
    I will die on this hill—Janet, you are the “Stassi” or “Katie” of VPR in the best possible way. Genuine, grounded, and misunderstood by some, but eventually the truth always surfaces. Fans always figure out who the real good people are, and I truly believe you’re one of them. It’s often the most authentic people who get villainized first, but just know there are so many of us—regular, thoughtful listeners—who see you clearly and love you for who you are. One of the first signs I noticed that spoke volumes about your character was how your husband, Jason, looks at you and speaks about you. He seems like a solid, logical, emotionally grounded man—and that’s rare in reality TV. I can only imagine how hard it must be to feel unfairly portrayed or judged, but from this listener’s view, you’re doing everything right. Just keep being you. Stay true to your heart and values—it always pays off. Your marriage especially stands out as one of the rare, truly healthy relationships we’ve had the honor to witness. It’s refreshing and inspiring. We need more couples like you and Jason to show younger generations what real love, respect, and partnership can look like. Thank you for sharing your life with us. You’re making a bigger impact than you may realize.

    Love love love
    I started following Janet before the valley, back when she would cohost on Scheananigans. I love her commentary and the banter between her, Jason and Jared is so fun! I look forward to this every week.
  • ShameOnZynga
    Torturous
    I couldn’t even make it through one episode! Janet has the personality of a wet mop. No wit, no charisma, no thank you!
  • Jaanma
    No thanks
    I just don’t like Janet
  • Sav Moose
    Great banter!
    I really enjoy hearing the banter between you three. You all seem like very genuine and sweet people. Loving the podcast!!
  • Jackleeen9
    Hi there
    Love listening!
  • Whimsy Thoughts
    Olympics Episode
    I really enjoy this podcast, but the commentary on the Olympics was really cringe. Please get informed before you speak on your topics. I know you can do better than that.
  • I listen008
    Yikes
    No excusing that behavior shown on Valley. The violence shown by Jesse is ok I guess, when kristen excused herself to avoid it.. yet she puts you “at risk”? lol make it make sense.: something “ain’t right”. Jason actually seems great, but again excusing wife’s behavior, not so much. Used to like Jared so much.. YAWN
  • Laities redemption
    Unfollowing
    You started the gossip about Michelle and turned it into crazy Kristen. It makes sense your friends with Scheana. Sorry Jared, no longer a fan.
  • Tocheipii
    Love the topics
    Not sure why the rating are low over sound, I love the ASMR vibes, but please continue your podcast! I love everything about it! ❤️
  • NikJ0Jur
    No
    not everyone on bravo is on the level Where they can just have their own successful podcast. this is way too soon for this and you need to stop trying to be Scheana so bad girl.
  • Broken Calcaneus
    Sound quality
    I have the volume all the way up and I can barely hear the men when they talk.
  • The Sauvignon Blonde
    Disappointed
    Janet’s inability to show any sort of humility is so incredibly annoying. Honestly Jason as well. Wanted to like them, unfortunately they are proving the internet right.
  • Letsride94
    Groomed by Scheana, married her reject, weaponizing her pregnancy
    Janet is obviously an uneducated mean girl. Clearly trying to be Stassi. She doesn’t have the brain capacity. She wormed her way into reality TV through Scheana. She married one of Scheana’s F Boys. Jason is a frat boy. If he’s as smart as he tries to convey he will eventually see through her manipulative ways. I really thought Jared was smarter than to be attached to such trash.
  • LeiAka
    It’s on
    So glad Janet has had her baby and mom and baby are healthy and strong. Now can anyone disagree with you without you accusing them of trying to harm your child? I mean, you sound like an absolute nut job on all the different podcasts talking about Zach and Kristen- AND you did that right after Kristin had a miscarriage? Yikes- I thought you were a cold-hearted mean girl at first but now the real picture is starting to form and you are apparently a heartless, mean girl. You do know that you wouldn’t even be on a show without Kristin. You can’t ice her out because you think you’re the number 1 girl. You’re not. Now that you’re baby is safely here I hope you get the real treatment that you deserve.

    Lovin it!
    Just started listening and badapapa i'm lovin it! On episode 4 and I’ve been sitting at work cracking up- literally LOLing hoping no one walks into my office 🤣 So relatable and funny. You have another loyal listener! ❤️
  • Thatsmyopinionn
    Nobody asked for this
    The level of delusion in this woman.
  • ellen_1031
    Mean girl Janet
    Janet is such a mean girl and clearly trying (and failing) to be this show’s Stassi.
  • eleeaych
    Eeeek
    Just stop with the podcast. No one wants to listen to you speak. I already fast forward through your scenes on The Valley. Please just take care of your baby and get off reality tv.
  • pattieladdie
    Soothing & chill, upbeat
    I’m a fan of this podcast after 1 episode - great chat. Jason & Janet are very personable. Janet you should do an episode’s of tips & tricks for organizing ;) Jason’s self-depricating style is unique and refreshing in the bravo world. Keep it up guys
  • UnrulyBran👸🏻
    About the kid
    Your kid, your rules, FYI though, Jason said his name already on the pod, and regardless if YOU go anywhere Parks, Theme parks, grocery store, YOU are now known, so they will know. Be careful with that, people are creeps and if your out with him they will snap shot you just to be spiteful & mean!
  • Candy T. Lords
    LOVE IT!!!
    This has quickly become my favorite ALL THINGS VALLEY plus so much more podcast!!! Keep it up. Looking forward to seeing your new baby on season 2. P.S. Already love THE VALLEY cast hope they keep VPR on their show… just my opinion! 💓
  • Babygotbeck
    Entertaining
    I started listening to the show, because I listened to all my weekly shows and this popped up. It is really entertaining. All 3 of them are entertaining and great to listen to, great at story telling, soothing voices.
  • SchopenhauerCure
    Yikes
    These are deeply stupid people who should not have a podcast or a platform of any kind. Beyond that, they are vapid, dull, and frighteningly petty and unkind. No self- awareness. You can tell they only think of themselves and it’s very off-putting. There are so many great podcasts out there (with hosts who are engaging, charming and thoughtful). Don’t waste even one solitary second on this one.
  • 2AliciaBV2
    Terrible show
    The valley is fake
  • dmarienyc
    Good try at a cover up
    For your horrific behavior.
  • O_Crabb
    Like listening to old friends!
    I am really enjoying this podcast! They’ve all been on my peripheral as I’ve been a longtime VPR viewer and follower so it’s nice to get to know them. It’s like listening to old friends chit chat and Janet and I had our babies I’m pretty sure within days of each other. They all have nice radio voice and everything flows really nicely!
  • dut1020
    Old woman, Janet
    I listened to you on the everything iconic podcast. Your comment about the old woman who won’t give up her Instagram name to you was such a disgusting comment. Never listening to this podcast. You sound very entitled. Everyone should follow her Instagram rather than yours.
  • 0hJessica
    Can’t wait to hear more!
    I am enjoying the podcast so far and can’t wait to see how it continues to grow. Janet, your voice is so soothing! I also love hearing input from Jared and Jason.
  • JuliaZ
    Bigoted and boring
    The hosts openly admit to being biased against Republicans and clearly cannot break out of the LA woke groupthink bubble. Disappointing because Janet always seemed cool on Scheana’s podcast, but she & her cohosts lack the charisma required to host a podcast. It’s a snooze fest.
  • turtle/rat queen
    🐀❤️🐍
    Long time listener, first time writing in: Hey to icon sparkle, Janet, and Jason. This is the turtle/rat/ant from Orlando. I love this pod soooo much bc you guys have rebel hearts and you are lolz. Thanks for giving it up to us. Keep serving cvnt, dead rats. Okay! ❤️❤️❤️
  • Joomama
    Awesome
    Been following Jared on Ig for a long time and have seen Janet on VPR. Love hearing them on this pod- excellent and smooth voices and interesting to hear from them. My new favorite pod! 🔥❤️🔥
  • MsT921
    Feels Like Hanging with Friends!
    I love this trio!! It feels like I’m just hanging in Sherman Oaks with my besties. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and cannot wait to hear more!!
  • EMKK85
    Love minus audio
    I enjoy the podcast so far but the volume is so low even when I turn it up all the way. It’s a lot harder to hear in my car or without headphones.
  • Salreno
    Can’t get enough!!!
    Love you guys!!!
