The San Antonio media fixture will retire the long-running culinary series at the end of the current season to focus on her faith-based podcast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve made one of the biggest decisions of my career\u2026\u201d wrote Patton in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tanjipatton\/posts\/10243033854045713\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">social media announcement<\/a>. \u201cThere are so many mixed emotions, but they all come from a very good place and are leading into an exciting new chapter in our Goodtaste world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Patton first launched Goodtaste with husband Mike Patton in 2008, initially operating it as an online series and magazine. The project became a syndicated show in 2016 and has since run 11 seasons, broadcast on 17 stations across Texas, Oklahoma, and Tennessee.<\/p>\n<p>Before exploring her passion for food and wine, she was an investigative reporter covering everything from the Pentagon to the child adoption process. During her 17-year tenure at News 4 San Antonio, she helped launch San Antonio Living and anchored the 6 and 10 pm newscasts.<\/p>\n<p>Patton said Goodtaste will continue to be a family business. Her son, Cash Patton, will be charged with growing Goodtaste for the Soul. The podcast already has more than 70 episodes with a few heavy hitters like Lidia Bastianich and Bun B mixed in with theological leaders and a few more controversial figures like Texas State Rep Shelley Luther and Goya CEO Bob Unanue. <\/p>\n<p>Still, the host isn\u2019t giving up foodie content entirely.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll continue sharing food and wine through our digital platforms, while also creating inspiring, uplifting conversations through the podcast,\u201d shared Patton.<\/p>\n<p>Locals can watch the final season of Goodtaste with Tanji on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@GoodTastewithTanji\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">YouTube<\/a>, where her podcast episodes will also be posted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After a decade of shining the spotlight on Texas food, TV host Tanji Patton is 86ing Goodtaste With&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":302339,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[6980,32325,54909,82,84,83,2186],"class_list":["post-302338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-celebrities","tag-food-tv","tag-hosts","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news","tag-television"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=302338"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302338\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/302339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=302338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=302338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=302338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
