I'm not getting an error but rather ${error.message} is being interpolated.

I'm trying to produce the same error message as the video but I'm just getting ${error.message}. Here is my snapshot. Thanks in advance.

You are using single quotes instead of backticks here:

console.error('Problem with request: ${error.message}')
