Google Trends Newsletter
For a newsletter from Google of all places the daily Trends insights are hilariously bad looking with some presentation they should be embarrassed to put out. That said, the insights themselves are really useful for staying on top of breakout trends, in both the UK and the US.

Exploding Topics Newsletter
The great thing about all of these trending topics newsletters is that you’ll get different insights from each one. Exploding Topics is a great addition to your inbox for some of the less obvious breakout trending topics (and much better looking than the Google Trends one 👀)
