Given some of the things that come out of his mouth,I figured his shake would look like this:
1 cup Karo syrup
1 cup hooch
1 hit LSD
A dove's wings
Stem Cells
Holy Water
Served in the Holy Grail
Close, but using stem cells would be unethical. In its place just add a touch of self-righteousness. If you can't find the self-righteousness just send $19.95 to...
And Pentecostals wouldn't use holy water, either. That's a Catholic thing, and according to Robertson, Catholics go to hell.

Pat Robertson worked out at the gym on an incline leg press machine with weights up to 570 pounds. Working with his physician, who was an amazing strength trainer, he worked up to 800 pounds, then 1,000 pounds. Then one day he was able to leg press 1,500 pounds one time. Then over the succeeding months, he trained with multiple reps of 1,200 pounds, 1,300 pounds, and 1,400 pounds.
One Saturday morning, his physician said, “I’ll get you bragging rights. Let’s go to 2,000 pounds.” Then he worked up multiple reps of 1,400 pounds, 1,500 pounds, 1,600 pounds, 1,700, pounds, 1,800 pounds and 1,900 pounds. When 2,000 pounds was put on the machine two men got on either side and helped push the load up, and then let it down on Mr. Robertson, who pushed it up one rep and let it go back down again.
Mr. Robertson warms up now at 500 pounds, and was shown on television with Kristi Watts doing 1000 pounds.
His doctor, by the way, has leg pressed 2,700 pounds. It is not nearly as hard as the authors of these reports make it out to be. We have multiple witnesses to the 2,000 pound leg press, plus video of the 10 reps of 1,000 pounds.
Yeah, and most of us Catholics that have ever heard him speak think we were already there.
If listening to Pat Robertson is hell, then what's Purgatory? Listening to Benny Hinn?
I'll never forget New Year's of 1981, and I heard Pat Robertson predict that THIS was the year the rapture would occur. That scared the living bejeebers out of me, since at the time I was a hormone driven 14 year old who didn't exactly have pure thoughts all the time. Then January 1 of 1982, Pat made THE SAME PREDICTION again, that 1982 would be the year. By that time, I figured something was fishy. Not long after that I figured out that one can practice Christianity without buying into every rambling word from self-appointed prophets.

Didn't the church decide that purgatory didn't exist anymore?

I suppose one could ask which church. Catholicism still has the doctrine of purgatory. Some theologians prefer to use language equating purgatory to a state of being rather than a place.
Most Protestant denominations do not accept the idea of purgatory since it is not based on biblical exegesis (how's that for theological jargon? ). The word "purgatory" does not appear in the Bible, but by the same token, neither are the words "trinity" or "rapture," -- but that's probably fodder for another thread.

Honestly? I can definitely see her doing that. She's got a set of pipes on her. Much more likely than Pat doing 2000. Apparently the AP picked up on that story today.

From someone who has leg pressed 1035 lbs in the past, I saw him do his "10 reps" with 1k and that's bullshit. He was doing VERY partial reps and pushing on his knees with his hands.
Now, for a man of his age, I'm not saying what he did do isn't very impressive, it is, but that trainer that's bragging him up needs to quit sucking Pat's dick long enough to tell the truth.
