In fact this talk and the others in the same series have been transcribed and published as a book: “The character of physical law”; here is a direct pdf link.

“For those who want some proof that physicists are human, the proof is in the idiocy of all the different units they use for measuring energy.” (p 75 of the 1967 MIT press edition)
This video is great.
