This is the 8th podcast for the two Baker sisters as they read through the Hugo award winning novels. This time they are reading Heinlein's first official win (not a retro win) Double Star which was first published in 1956. Both sisters enjoyed the novel and did a double take on Heinlein. Ha! You see what I did there?
