Sporting Kansas City defender Graham Zusi is the featured guest on the latest episode of the I Am Home podcast series, released on Wednesday and available on Nebraska Furniture Mart's website at NFM.com/podcast.

Hosts Tyler Wisecup, Hilary Woltemath and Becca Sudbeck cover a wide range of topics - both on and off the field - with the seven-time MLS All-Star, who recently reached a major milestone with an assist in Sporting's 4-2 win over Houston on Sunday at Children's Mercy Park.

With 29 goals and 71 assists in his heralded regular season career, Zusi becomes only the 12th active MLS player to record 100 combined goals and assists. Zusi is the longest-tenured MLS player with one club in MLS history, having begun his professional career in Kansas City in 2009, and is approaching 25,000 regular season minutes played - a milestone only achieved by eight active players.

Zusi made a special appearance at Nebraska Furniture Mart last month to sign autographs for shoppers and the store's Kansas City location will host two upcoming events for community members: Tacotopia from 12-6 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 9 and KC Halloweekend Movie Night with a screening of Black Panther at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 30.
