There are examples like: Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, from time to time, on the other hand.
Generally, not too useful because they teach you to not stay on top of the speaker. You hesitate when you hear ladies, for example, losing speed by stopping. They are helpful if you fall behind though.
I just type from my mind though, and certain phrases are useful because I use them a lot, but tying from the mind is different from transcription.

Mirabai, AP in the default Plover dictionary is defined as "ap," and I don't even know what that means or why it's defined that way lol. I keep forgetting to redefine it.On this subject, and slightly aside, how would you guys feel about defining slightly longer phrases? In my transcription work and in interviews in general, I hear people saying "Tell me a little bit about," "to be able to," "in terms of," and a few other seemingly universal phrases. I've heard of people defining two-word phrases, but never multi-word phrases so far in my limited poking around.

Thanks for replying and for your encouragement, Mirabai. AP comes out as "ap" in the default dictionary, which really boggled me, so I was scared to change it. But now that I think about it, it's pretty meaningless
