We present an analysis of the lightcurve extracted from Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Full Frame Images (FFIs) of the double-mode RR Lyrae V338 Boo. We find that the fundamental mode pulsation is changing in amplitude across the 54 days of observations. The first overtone mode pulsation also changes, but on a much smaller scale. Harmonics and combinations of the primary pulsation modes also exhibit unusual behavior. Possible connections with other changes in RR Lyrae pulsations are discussed, but a full understanding of the cause of the changes seen in V338 Boo should shed light on some of the most difficult and unanswered questions in stellar pulsation theory, and astrophysics more generally.
