[For the entire collection see Zbl 0752.00055.] This paper is a light-hearted look at two real-life problems through the eyes of the Gothenburg school of branching process theory. The first problem is to estimate the date of birth of a remote ancester of an individual living today; the second (related) problem is to estimate how long it is since two related species started to diverge from each other due to genetic mutation. The presentation is informal and rigorous mathematical details are omitted.
