Both might look questionable at first blush, but it turns out that #1 seems to be gramatically correct.

«Listen» is used fairly often as a noun, as another post on this site noted (The Phrase ‘Take a Listen’). As commentators on that post noted, whether or not that usage is too colloquial seems to be a matter of opinion. Apparently, however, «listen» has been used as a noun for a couple of centuries. At least one dictionary documents this usage in 1788 (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/listen#h2).

«Listening», as a gerund, functions by definition as a noun. This site offers many examples of how it could be used in a sentence: https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/sentences-with-the-word/listening.html None of those, however, accompanies the word with one or more adjectives, as #2 does. It doesn’t sound quite right in #2, and this may be due to the use of «my first» before it. There are, of course, plenty of adjectives that can be idiomatically used with «listening» (ex: «active», «careful», «respectful», etc. http://adjective1.com/for-listening/), but the combination offered in #2 does not sound as though it should be among them.
