Need advice on something that's bugging me. Had an interview scheduled, and the recruiter confirmed the time as Central Time after I mentioned my timezone. They called an hour early while I was away from my phone for 5 minutes, and left a voicemail asking if I was still interested. I called back immediately (tried multiple times) and sent a professional email explaining the timezone confusion. Haven't heard back since. Should I have done more?

A lot of recruiters are badly behaved & unprofessional unfortunately. It's not your fault.

That’s frustrating. Time zone mix-ups happen, and it sounds like you handled it the right way. I’d probably follow up one more time just to close the loop, but after that, I’d move on. If they’re not responsive now, it’s a red flag for later.

Since clocks went digital, people have forgotten how to tell time.

I think you did what you should have. But in the future ask them to send you a calendar invite… it will calculate it into your time zone directly to your calendar. I use this a lot bc I have family in three other time zones.
