"The readership addressed by Naked Punch must be made up of the people I would like to think that I address: serious, cosmopolitan, thoughtful, searching and humane. The magazine always inspires me with the thought that civilization thrives if it thrives"

“Naked Punch is a continually surprising, constantly creative and nakedly engaged new journal that goes from strength to strength.”

Simon Critchley


"A surprising yet necessary new site for philosophical expression, Naked Punch deftly avoids both the glossy glibness of mainstream
intellectual journalism and the arid mustiness of academic scholasticism. Blending style and candor, essays and interviews, familiar and
fresh voices, its passionate thinking is the richly
intoxicating rum of this potent punch."
