You may want to add a \s+ to the end of that, in the event that there
is more than one time associated with the string, as in $string[2]. 
If you can count on the last 2 digits of the time followed by a space
determining your separator (and a comma means keep going), it should
work for you.

My best guess: /([\w\s]+[\d{1,2}:\d{2},*]+\s+)/
