Thank you, kani. I will check this on Sunday.
I did not concentrate on the interview as I then checked if 5 Breakouts should be a new record.

Ryan mentioned last weekend that "Flowers" now became the longest running #1 song of 2023 and the longest streak on top since Adele's "Easy On Me" (10 weeks through February 5, 2022), and that this song may become a strong contender for the #1 song of 2023.

Here is Mediabase 2023 Year-End Hot AC chart (so far) based on my tabulation.

The interview was with Jake Gyllenhaal but I can't remember what movie that was talked about.
