Any way of bleeping out a cuss word on a Zoom recording

I got a fantastic recording for my podcast but unfortunately my interviewee got a little carried away and dropped a few cuss words in there. Before I stick it up on my podcast provider, is there any way of bleeping the cuss words out of the audio recording?

If the word in question falls in the middle of the recording, you'll need to edit the video file outside of Zoom (Zoom can only 'trim' the tops and bottoms of cloud recordings and associated audio).

 

You can easily use a free DAW (digital audio workstation) to cut/bleep the word in question from the audio file after downloading it. Off the top of my head, some of these are Reaper, GarageBand, Audacity, and Waveform Free.
