In this episode of the Paisley Pirates Podcast, we’re heading behind the scenes with Pam and Steve, the powerhouse duo behind Cold Blooded Sports, one of Scottish ice hockey’s most passionate independent retailers and proud sponsors of the Paisley Pirates.

We dive into the origins of the business, the trials they faced (including the devastating fire that shook the shop to its core), and how they rebuilt with resilience and support from the hockey community. From kitting out youth players to supplying gear for top clubs, Pam and Steve reflect on what keeps them pushing forward and what Cold Blooded means to the sport in Scotland.

We also chat about their growing YouTube channel, why they decided to explore that space, and how it’s helping educate, connect, and grow their brand in a digital world.

It’s a conversation filled with honesty, banter, and the kind of grassroots grit that keeps hockey alive and thriving in local communities.

This one’s for the players, the parents, the coaches, and anyone who’s ever walked into a hockey shop and felt at home.
