Dr. Joseph-Joseph ("Joseph") Mama (b. Zurich, 1937) is a social sciences and mass media researcher, educator, and philosopher most well known for two highly controversial mass media theories, "Systemic Marketing: The Cycle of Sales and Suffering" and "Endemic Advertising: The UniCycle of the Crystal Skull." The latter, now largely de-bunked theory, brought Dr. Mama on his first lecture series in the United States in 1986, where he was the first guest to have a week-long stand on "Donahue." Mama and Donahue retain a spirited friendship to this day. Dropping largely out of site in the 1990's, Dr. Mama continues to write and research social sciences issues, with a particular emphasis in contemporary business vernacular and lexicon. His most recent book, ": The Semiotics of Meaninglessness" was published by HBR Publishing in Feb. 2008.

Dr. Mama lives in Osage Beach, MO, with his second wife, Juliette. This angers his third wife, Joan (to whom he is still married) greatly, and is a constant source of stress in their marriage.
