don't use the aline stuff that is given in the podcast instead drop a marker with the p key while it is playing and a p at the end of the selection then navigate to the first marker with option arrows with the file stopped. you will need to play some of the file to know where you are. then hit cmd right arrow to extend forward to the next marker. and edit.
