Could you please fill in the blank of a sentence?
I have been studying English with a youtube video,
in which it has a sentence I can't get it fully.
It is "Would you have listened to them, __ you think?"
Please help me to figure it out and give me some short explanation if you can.
Thank you in advance.

The first time, around 1:14, he says “Would you have listened to them, anyway.” In this usage, the “anyway” implies that the person asking the question thinks that it is unlikely that she would have listened to the persons giving her advice. The second time, around 1:17, he says “Would you have listened to them, do you think.” This is a more neutral way of asking the question, and does not imply that the speaker thinks that the answer is “no”.

I think he said "Would you have listended to them, do you think?" which has the same meaning as "Do you think you would have listened to them?"
