Am I correct? You want to randomly play anything from 'fiftypoundtalk' and
'radioclashtalk'.

This should be accomplished by doing:
alltalk = playlist(mode="random",reload=3600,"/home/shows/featuredshows")

LS will look recursively into those directories for content to play.  If
/home/shows/featuredshows includes other content, you'll have undesirable
results.
