I've been working on [catching up]({{< ref "blog/2025/catching-up.md" >}}) on

This [interview with Dr. Erin A. Cech][cech] about her new book _The Trouble

A coworker told me recently about this website, [JustWatch](justwatch.com), that
aggregates listings from various streaming services to answer the question
"where do I watch this thing?". Very handy.
