Oh God, Newlisp. Don't worry about that. Start with Common Lisp. It's probably the most Pythonic in that it's built for building real applications in. SBCL is the open source implementation everyone seems to favor.
Runners up are Racket and Guile.
The "Lisps in Python" (like Hy and Hissp) are nice, but they're not very Lispy. More like Python with sexpr syntax. I recommend Calysto Scheme for messing around: https://github.com/Calysto/calysto_scheme
It's slow, but it's full Scheme.
